Liverpool Summer Signings Fire: Araujo and Bärkola Score Within 120 Seconds
Ronald Araujo and Bradley Barcola scored their first goals for Liverpool in the match against Lask.
According to Sports Three, Liverpool, who stepped into the field of Lask in Austria with a changed composition and relying on young stars, took a 2-0 lead from Lask with the brilliance of his two big catches of the summer in just two minutes.
The reds, who are wearing white today, had complete control of the field from the start of the game, and in the 22nd minute, they got the reward of their better game and opened the gate of the Austrian host. The sixth corner kick of Andoni Iraola's students from the left wing went to the penalty area with a precise pass by Kostas Simikas, and Ronald Araujo sent the ball into the corner of the goal with a spectacular flight above the Lask defenders.
It was Evin Araujo's goal for Liverpool and that's why he was overjoyed and had a passionate goal celebration. Araujo joined Liverpool on loan from Barca this summer.
Less than two minutes later, it was the turn of the team's most expensive offensive purchase. Only two minutes later in the 24th minute, Rio Ngumoha, the technical phenomenon of Liverpool, disrupted the opponent's defense with a spectacular penetration and passed the ball to Luis Komes. The young striker of Liverpool planted the ball for Bradley Barkula without delay, and the French winger, with a precise and technical shot with his right foot, sewed the ball into the upper corner of the opponent's goal and doubled the difference.
This goal had double value and importance for Barkula. The player who came to Anfield in the summer with a contract worth 123 million pounds from Paris Saint-Germain and was called the second most expensive purchase in the history of Liverpool after Alexander Issac, had a slow start in the Reds' composition and his lack of goals and assists had faced intense media pressure. Yesterday, Iraola strongly supported the player and Florian Wirtz, saying that the merit of these stars goes beyond the numbers on paper, and Barkola today responded to the support of his head coach.
