Ronald Araujo played in Bradley Barcola down the right, and his cross bounced off Gross into the path of Wirtz. Liverpool's number seven rifled the ball into the back of the net, but it took a huge deflection off his fellow German, leaving Bart Verbruggen with no chance of saving the shot.

Wirtz was bright throughout the afternoon, but picked up a knock in the second half and had to be replaced. He looked uncomfortable after coming together with Yasin Ayari just after the hour mark and was replaced by youngster Trey Nyoni.
