Sissoko & Voronin Seals Comfort Win

Sunderland 0 Liverpool 2
Sissoko, 37, Voronin, 87




A game which we needed to win and we did with a 2-0 win over newly promoted Sunderland. Roy Keane's side has been working very hard and this game was no exception. They made Liverpool worked hard for the points under the hot weather.

Surprisingly, Momo Sissoko finally scored for us! After so long, he managed to put the ball into the net with a nice long shot!





We had many great chances throughout the game but just couldn't convert our chances into goals. That gave Sunderland some hope as they tend to gain more confidence further into the game. Torres and Voronin had great chances while Pennant was awesome throughout the game.



Alvaro Arbeloa was the one who I wish to praise. Quiet player but does his job well. He has been selected in every game so far for Liverpool. This tells me that Rafa believed in him and he's playing even better in every game. Jamie Carragher and Sami Hyypia was injured in this game and he has to makeshift to be centre-back in the later part of the game. Arbeloa did it brilliantly and because of that, Liverpool manged to score the second, the killer goal.

Counter attack by Babel and Pennant which led to a pass to Torres who lays it off to Voronin, who finished it steadily. Sunderland goalkeeper had made several outstanding saves throughout the match, we could have score more not because of him.



It's a comfortable win. A game which we must win and 3 points are in the bag. We have 7 points out of 9 and I believe it's not that bad. We have to keep it going. With hope in your heart, walk on.

You'll Never Walk Alone..
