00:00 [SOUND]
00:06 >> He's playing, we just wonder whether he will drop in deeper and become an extra body in that middle.
00:11 He's quite congested in that, depending on how the players drop in.
00:15 >> Yeah, that's what we're so used to talking about in the start of the play, that he used to bring to Liverpool and allow then your Mane's and your Salah's to get in behind.
00:24 But also with Trent dropping into that midfield as well, it is-
00:27 >> In days time, against the Bundesliga champions here at the Singapore National Stadium, Jürgen Klopp will get the clearest indication yet on who is ready to start the season.
00:38 >> Chance to watch them train in the lead up to it.
00:42 And they get to watch two real sets of superstars for real as the season, as we say, gets that little bit closer.
00:49 They're expecting near close to a sellout crowd.
00:52 There are 20,000 here for the Leicester game, but the game-
00:55 >> And it's a team that shows four changes to the one that beat Leicester so convincingly the other night.
01:00 How close to the 11 that starts the season at Stamford Bridge will be the one that you've just seen there before, as mentioned before, 27 players travelled.
01:09 A few did have knocks on the way, but-
01:11 >> The National Stadium, and we're underway for one of those stand-up arcs.
01:15 >> As Liverpool rain down the left-hand side as Salah opens up a lot of space for himself.
01:21 He doesn't need him though, Cody Gakpo in the number nine position, back amongst the goals.
01:28 He had a trail of defenders in his wake that he didn't need any assistance from Salah.
01:33 And inside the first two minutes, Liverpool have a very early lead.
01:37 >> Well, it's a blistering start from Liverpool, blistering start from Cody Gakpo.
01:41 He did have the option to try and square it.
01:43 I thought that was probably the better option.
01:45 But when you're hitting the ball like what he's hitting there with his left foot, towering in there.
01:51 You can see here, he picks that position up there.
01:55 He does that ever so well, we've seen that on occasions where he gets on that half turn.
01:59 The simple little one-two, Bayern won't be happy with the defending, it has to be said.
02:04 Maybe come out of the traps a little bit slowly, but take nothing away from Cody Gakpo.
02:10 This is a quality finish.
02:12 Mo Salah on that right-hand side, can Jota find him? He can.
02:16 Salah all on his own for the moment.
02:19 And it was a good block in the end from Kim Min-jae.
02:23 And Ballery tosses away that support he's had on his right hand for the last couple of weeks.
02:29 He goes back to the pool, good.
02:31 Robertson looks for that early ball again for Mo Salah, and Liverpool all over Bayern this set play.
02:37 Liverpool again, the same corner, all on his own against the post.
02:41 Second opportunity there for Pavard, he puts over the top of the crossbar,
02:46 they wanted to flag Liverpool.
02:48 They join a little spell, it was a heavy touch though,
02:54 and Curtis Jones did really well to buy the foul.
02:57 Little word in his ship, still in possession.
03:02 A touch from Gnabry, and they're in here with Davis, perhaps good footing from Virgil van Dijk.
03:09 Liverpool having to dig deep here.
03:11 Yeah, they've responded pretty well, haven't they?
03:13 Skipper's corner, gets that back post to target.
03:17 Delicious ball there from Trent Alexander-Arnold, looking for his mate Mo Salah.
03:23 Mo Salah was set again with the throw-in, couldn't find the advancing Sobhrasligh.
03:29 Pretty robust challenge from Sobhrasligh in the end.
03:34 Liverpool just slightly out of shape here,
03:37 Gnabry with the crossing attempt, and it's another corner for Bayern Munich.
03:40 Another corner, this time onto the edge of Jota,
03:46 looking for the pace of Mo Salah as he just toe-poked it in his direction.
03:49 Davis will take the opportunity there by the nudge of Mo Salah,
03:53 to take a free kick and not have to sprint after him.
03:57 Well, we're just making reference field.
04:00 Of course it's Trent Alexander-Arnold today,
04:02 and this is where the attack comes again from Gnabry,
04:05 who is not gonna beat Alisson from that kind of distance.
04:08 Salah down in that right-hand corner,
04:13 it's Kim Inje who comes across to Bonnier from the corner.
04:18 Into that front post, and it's Virgil van Dijk!
04:22 Who puts the cap on the armband from this week,
04:25 they've worked ever so hard on these set plays this summer,
04:28 he wants them to become that team that are unstoppable at set plays.
04:32 Jürgen Klopp, he had two to pick from as Joel Matip,
04:37 and the big skipper comes in, and he elongates that Liverpool lead.
04:42 You don't get the replay, but Gary will tell you why it was so special.
04:45 Oh, here it is, it's a lovely little ball.
04:47 It's a long direct ball that put the opposition in trouble this time,
04:50 and it was Jota looking for Cody Gapo.
04:53 Forward comes Trent Alexander-Arnold,
04:55 so top of Zoboslai, curls one in,
04:59 again it's towards Virgil van Dijk.
05:02 Towards Cody Gapo,
05:04 Locano got it clear from the first header.
05:08 Curtis Jones, Gnabry again,
05:11 first time Zoboslai coming back to hand Alexander-Arnold.
05:14 Gnabry has loads of time and loads of space to pick out the man at the back post,
05:24 Sane, who levels the game up here,
05:27 and it was just a bit too easy for Bayern Munich there.
05:30 And just prior to the break,
05:34 Liverpool with a few more questions to answer at the half-time interval
05:38 from Jurgen Klopp than perhaps they had after racing into that early lead.
05:42 Well, they just get a little bit isolated, Liverpool,
05:44 I thought Joe Matip maybe should have come across a little bit earlier
05:47 to try and engage Gnabry.
05:50 Gisela again finds himself isolated,
05:53 Alphonso Davies with the counter-press of Bayern Munich in danger again here,
05:57 this time from the youngster Matthias Tell,
06:00 who will feel Bayern Munich coming back into things,
06:04 and it's level pegging at the break, Liverpool 2-2 Bayern.
06:08 We'll see how those changes work out for Liverpool in terms of their shape.
06:19 Down the right-hand side, a slight push in the back there,
06:23 and a second opportunity for Leymah to get the shot on goal.
06:28 And it ends up out 2-2 in case you're just joining us here,
06:32 Liverpool had raced into a two-goal lead.
06:35 And you can see Sane's gone off and Koeman involved again,
06:40 and the opening exchanges of this second half have forced us another corner.
06:44 Also a bit of change in goal, Kimmich with the corner,
06:48 first contact with some Virgil van Dijk.
06:51 Kool just caught him behind here.
06:53 Missed place pass that Sane...
06:59 The bench is quite long as well, and it's Robertson's ball in looking for Nunes.
07:05 Right side seems to be the focus now, who finds some space from nowhere.
07:11 As Iala tries to find a way, and that's a great touch from Koeman.
07:16 Really good save from Alisson Becker as well.
07:19 He's gonna need help from him again here.
07:22 Run is through, Darwin Nunes into that front post.
07:26 Alexander-Arnold tried the boy in his heels.
07:32 Gatpo, smart play from Liverpool, Zobislaj's shot, just couldn't get enough heat onto it.
07:40 Virgil van Dijk, and he stays down.
07:43 Play goes on, Kimmich with the shot on goal, with the score as well.
07:48 Doesn't get the fortunate spin, but Alexander-Arnold was looking for Van Dijk,
07:52 and just sold him short.
07:54 He has to concede the call.
07:57 Simicast looking for Mo Salah, run is also from Javier, smart feat from Diaz, what a finish.
08:07 Really deserving of that goal, Luis Diaz, for the amount of running and endeavour he's put in since he's come on the pitch.
08:16 We saw it in Germany, we're seeing it again here in Singapore,
08:19 the end product is improving week by week and game by game.
08:23 Luis Diaz gives Liverpool the lead.
08:26 Well it's brilliant because he starts to move off with that diagonal there,
08:29 doesn't rest on his laurels, you can see there just in the middle of your picture,
08:33 bursting into the box, but that's the one, that's the touch that makes it.
08:37 The ball from Mo Salah is really...
08:40 The youngster on the ball now, set play and a free header as well coming in.
08:46 And the header from De Ligt finished off via the push-out from the goalkeeper, Alisson Becker.
08:53 And it's Josip Stanisic, the young defender, who scored the winner in their friendly at the weekend, the Croatian.
09:02 And it's a bit of a horror show really from a defensive point of view for Liverpool.
09:08 De Ligt gets a free header, which when the ball travels this far, it shouldn't happen.
09:14 And in fairness to Bayern Munich, they work it well, it's a decent header, De Ligt.
09:18 Delaying that work call another four minutes just in case there might be something else to talk about here.
09:23 What an effort on goal that was, that will settle the game in the end from a Bayern Munich point of view.
09:29 Franz Kratzig, the youngster, wasn't even on the squad sheet in the lead-up to this tour.
09:37 And he can't quite believe that he's managed to win the game for his team in the closing stages probably of this game.
09:44 A real pot shot on his left foot and nothing Alisson Becker could do about it.
09:50 Like Call of Duty, PUBG, all these games are 2.5 GB each.
09:57 So if you install 10 games on your phone, you'll need space of 20-25 GB.
10:03 So for the operating system, you have 20 GB, and for gaming, you have another 20-25 GB.
10:09 I'm not going to go through 25 GB.
