Liverpool cruised to victory against LASK in Austria on Wednesday evening, although one moment in the second half prompted a furious reaction from one Reds player.Ronald Araujo’s opener and a Bradley Barcola double had the away side 3-0 to the good at half-time, and Jeremie Frimpong’s header further extended the lead shortly after the interval.The French winger went on to complete his hat-trick and Lewis Koumas, having had two goals disallowed for narrow offsides, would eventually get on the scoresheet as Andoni Iraola’s side netted six.Alisson ‘fuming’ over concession of Liverpool goalsHowever, there’d be no clean sheet for Alisson Becker as, with Liverpool 4-0 up in the 63rd minute, Robert Ljubicic pounced on carelessness from the Reds to dispatch a near-post finish into the visitors’ net.As noted in BBC Sport‘s live web commentary, the Brazilian goalkeeper was ‘fuming with his defence’ over the manner in which that goal was conceded and he was denied a shutout.It wouldn’t be the first instance of Iraola’s side switching off, either, as substitue Florian Flecker scored twice in quick succession to make the scoreline more respectable for LASK.(Photo by Michael Regan/Getty Images)Want more Empire of the Kop coverage?
