The Reaction: Diaz at the double

Liverpool FC
About this episode
Arne Slot, Diogo Jota, Jarell Quansah and Caoimhin Kelleher reflect on two Anfield friendlies against La Liga opposition on Sunday, as Liverpool concluded their pre-season fixtures with a 4-1 win over Sevilla and a 0-0 draw with Las Palmas. Former Reds Gary Gillespie, Ray Houghton, Neil Mellor and Natasha Dowie also provide pitchside analysis of the key talking points from both games.

Excellently executed goals from Jota, Luis Diaz – who grabbed a brace – and 17-year-old Trey Nyoni entertained the crowd in a comfortable victory over the seven-time UEFA Cup / Europa League winners, while Andy Robertson hitting the post was the highlight of the less eventful encounter with Las Palmas that took place behind closed doors.
