NISSAN STADIUM, JAPAN // Liverpool came from behind to beat the Japanese side Yokohama Marinos as Florian Wirtz netted his first goal since arriving for a club record fee from Bayer Leverkusen this summer and Rio Ngumoha shone.
It doesn't feel too early to predict that he is going to be a real star at Anfield; there is a reason that Liverpool was prepared to go so big to sign him.
Wirtz took a while to get used to the awful pitch but when he did, his touch was sublime in the circumstances.
The Liverpool build-up generally wasn't particularly fluid, and the opening goal came down his side.
