Liverpool banging all these long passes forward instead of running clock is killing me.

I have been watching behind on DVR but finally finished.
Was that as grim and poorly played as it felt like? Seemed liked so many bad passes and aimless balls.

Can't believe they made back-to-back finals and won one of them.

I think the early goal for Liverpool killed the game. They were out passed 2:1 by Spurs -- and that hasn't happened all year. This might be the only game they had less than 45% possession (35% today). Up 1-0 they were happy to wait for Spurs to make a mistake or be forced into pushing forward. Ugly works when you're ahead.

I was hoping the early goal would help open things up. But Spurs were so bad on the ball, it didn't matter that things were actually opened up.

Kane was a shell of himself. But what are you going to do as Spurs? When one of the best players in the world tells you he is good to go, you have to roll the dice.

Wasn’t pretty but they saw it out. Allison was great. Huge tackle by Virg on Son.

Matip with a super assist on Origi's goal. Missed that touch live.

That was one of the plays of the game for me.
He made it look so easy but it was absolutely perfectly played by van Dijk.

They were all bad, tbh, Kane or no. Son finally got it together a bit at the end, but even he lacked the final touch over and over.
I will say, Origi took that goal really well.

Good call, you guys. That was massive, and so easy looking.
The rest of the game Spurs were so off with that final ball, VVD wasn't ever really challenged until then.

The parallels between Kane and Firmino are interesting. Both back after a time away, both well off the pace and neither with any impact on the game.
Obviously Spurs aren't the same team with Kane, and Liverpool really miss Firmino when he's out or off -- without a true #10 he's the connective tissue of the team a lot of the time.

the replay showed how inch perfect the shot was. Great finish.
Before that he was giving the ball away much too easily with some really poor passes.

Jurgen Klopp, 6am the morning after losing the final last year.
Begs the question whether he'll survive tonight.

Just watched Poch's presser. He's such a classy act -- wish nothing but good things for that guy.

That's a great point. They both looked like they hadn't played in ages...and they hadn't.
They'll get less of a summer break given all the world tours than they did for CL final.
