Liverpool Name Frimpong and Nyoni for LASK Match
Liverpool were scheduled to visit LASK in the Champions League on Wednesday, October 14, with a confirmed starting lineup that included Jeremie Frimpong and Trey Nyoni. The pre-match reports described the fixture as a chance for Liverpool to respond to a domestic defeat; they do not establish the match result. Liverpool’s published team sheet named Nyoni in midfield for what the accompanying report described as his first Champions League start. Frimpong also came into the starting side, alongside Konstantinos Tsimikas in defence. The lineup listed Alisson in goal, with Ibrahima Araujo, Jarell Quansah and Tsimikas completing the back four with Frimpong. Ryan Gravenberch partnered Nyoni in midfield, while Bradley Barcola, Florian Wirtz and Rio Ngumoha were named behind Lewis Koumas. The team sheet showed four changes from the side that had lost 3-0 to Manchester City. Virgil van Dijk and Milos Kerkez were left out of the starting defence, while Alexis Mac Allister and Victor Munoz were replaced in the other changes. Liverpool’s recent loss had come after Gravenberch was sent off, according to pre-match accounts.
