With Carvajal back in action, Alexander-Arnold will now have increased competition for a starting spot.

Speaking before the game, pundit Javier Herraez suggested the Englishman is 'nowhere near' the level he displayed during his time at Anfield.

"I’m waiting for Trent," he told Cadena SER.

I’ve always liked watching the Premier League, watching this player.

Trent is nowhere near the Liverpool player.

Maybe it’s preseason, but I haven’t seen him well."
