The spectators at the Anfield stadium are still faithful to watch today's match between Liverpool host his guest Porto.
Porto spectators are also still loyal to watch their team play even though their team is currently losing 2 - 0 to Liverpool.
Currently the match is already in the second half, but the score has not changed.
The changes Liverpool are making are not there yet, the boss still trusts the players who are on the pitch at the moment.
Unlike Porto who started the second half, they immediately entered 3 substitutes.
Maybe the Porto coach hopes that the entry of these three players will change the course of the game on the field.
But what happens is the match on the field is still the same as before, as happened in the 1st or first round.
At the moment, the match in the second half is also in the 73rd minute, but the boss has not made a change.
But the players on the bench are warming up.
And sure enough, when entering the 76th minute, Sean, Joao Felix, Florian was replaced.
Sean replaced by Curtis Jones, Felix replaced Harvey Elliot and Mbappe will fill the space of Joao Felix.
Florian replaced by Jordan Henderson.
With the entry of these players, Liverpool also get a fresh breeze.
They are also not too attacking, but rather neutralizing every attack that is being launched and planned by the Porto players.
Upon entering the 79th minute, Declan Rice was replaced by Fabinho.
That way Liverpool's midfield is also back fresh.
The players of Porto really hard to break through it.
Even so, during the course of this match, Porto also had a total of 8 chances just that no one produced a goal.
Total shots there were also 12 there were 8 on target.
The rest is just 4 shots off.
While Liverpool, have 17 shots, 11 on target and 6 off the mark.
Even so, Liverpool became to have a greater number of corners only from a corner no one became a goal because it was neutralized by the Porto players.
Entering the 86th minute, Porto carried out an attack through their swift Winger.
Liverpool's right-hand side, where Trent was on guard, were overwhelmed because during this game he was moving forward a lot to help so his stamina was completely drained.
He was left behind by Winger Porto.
Winger Porto also accelerated inward, but was soon stopped by Ibrahima Konate.
He did some techniques to try to outwit Ibrahima Konate, but Ibrahima Konate remained focused.
Meanwhile, Trent was back chasing from behind.
Winger Porto players were also desperate.
He quickly passed the ball into the middle, hoping for a welcoming companion.
And sure enough Porto attacker immediately shot without control first.
The shot was also quickly aimed at the goal, Virgil was also late to block the shot.
Finally Alison had to try to save his goal so that today in this game he could keep a clean sheet.
Alison jumped to the right side of the net because of a shot that was tightened by the attacker's straight flat shot.
Alison jumped up and stretched out her hand to pull the ball away, but her hand did not reach the ball.
Alison was already sweating on her forehead because she didn't want to let in.
But who would have thought the ball hit the goalpost and went straight out.
The boss on the sidelines is also very nervous because he is afraid that his team will enter at a time like this.
Reaction shown by the coach Porto even more so he jumped because he was convinced of the goal, but after hitting the post he immediately prostrated because he did not believe that was not a goal.
Finally the match was also followed by a goal kick by Alison.
The match also continued, where the ball is in the possession of the players Liverpool at this time.
That's how the game goes in the remaining time.
Liverpool kept trying to play the ball, and the referee also blew a sign of the end of the game.
Sean who had been replaced also immediately stood up and hugged the players on the bench.
The players on the bench understand because this is Sean's first game at Ucl so of course the atmosphere is felt differently to other players who often feel it.
They also understand Sean's behavior like this.
Sean hugged the boss.
"This is how UCL feels, so you have to get used to it." Said the boss to Sean.
"Good boss." Said Sean while nodding.
Then Sean walked over and greeted the players who had been playing on the field by hugging them one by one.
After the end the players return to the dressing room, while the boss will go to the press conference with Virgil.
In the press conference room.
Many media have gathered, let alone this media is not from the UK alone, but there are from Portugal, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Spain, even Indonesia also exists.
Sean doesn't know.
"Boss what do you think of today's match? Are the players performing as expected or is there still something to improve?" Ask a journalist from the British media.
"Of course, every game still has something to improve. And I keep doing that at the end of every game so that every next game is better. For today's game, I think my players played very well and executed my plan well."
"I appreciate all the players for working hard, thank you." Say the boss then rewinds his body back and rests his back on the chair.
"Boss, how do you feel about the first goal? We saw it that it was very similar to the Liverpool team's goal in the League opener. Is this planned?"
"Haha." The boss laughed immediately.
"It is precisely I who should ask them later, do they plan it?"
Then the boss glanced at Virgil, "What do you think?"
"I don't need to say whether it's planned or not, for sure the chemistry of our three attacking lines has been very good and close so maybe this has become their habit and obligation to understand each other." Virgil.
"Look?" Ask the boss to reporters from several media who are ready to record.
"Boss, Sean is currently the first player from Indonesia to play in the prestigious UCL competition, how do you feel about him in this match?"
"Sean?" Said the boss with a smile.
"He always doesn't disappoint me." Brief boss.
Then the reporters were silent because they were waiting for the next sentence from the boss, but the boss did not continue it anymore.
Then the mood was also quiet.
Virgil suddenly laughed and some also took pictures.
"Virgil, why are you laughing?" Speak to several reporters together out of curiosity.
"The boss is done commenting on Sean's performance but you're waiting for him silly."
"The boss just said it briefly, because Sean was right to always carry out the boss' instructions, he always played well in every game and never made our team-mates feel disappointed. So with this comment is it enough?" Virgil asked reporters from several media outlets.
