Liverpool 2-2 Sporting Lisbon: Western Union Cup – as it happened


Hello and welcome to Yankee Stadium for tonight’s friendly between Liverpool and Sporting Lisbon. The six-time European champions are here in the Bronx and looking to end their pre-season tour of America on a high note after Saturday’s 3-2 loss to Dortmund at Notre Dame Stadium and Sunday’s 2-1 defeat to Sevilla at Fenway Park.

We’ve just been informed by the stadium public address announcer that our scheduled 8.05pm kickoff has been delayed until 8.15pm due to traffic in the city, leaving us roughly 50 minutes to kickoff. Still, the team sheets are out so we’ll spare you further throat-clearing and get right to it.
