Andoni Iraola takes charge of his first preseason friendly as Liverpool manager, with the Reds facing Sunderland to kick off their summer tour in the United States.
Nashville plays host to Iraola’s unofficial bow, as a pair of Premier League rosters without their World Cup participants lock horns at GEODIS Park.
While Liverpool will be without a glut of stars, plenty of supporters will be tuning in with intrigue in abundance. A new era beckons for the Reds after a woeful title defense, with Iraola suddenly the club’s protagonist in a landscape bereft of Mohamed Salah.
Sunderland squeezed in their first outing of the summer before jetting across the Atlantic, beating York City 5–1 on Saturday.
