Liverpool continued their preparations for the 2022/23 campaign with a frustrating 1-0 pre-season defeat against RB Salzburg.
The Reds set up in their traditional 4-3-3 shape with one defensive midfielder in academy prospect Stefan Bajetic and Darwin Nunez leading the line for the second successive game after his four-goal haul against RB Leipzig. Harvey Elliott and Fabio Carvalho were also handed starts out wide in a youthful-looking Liverpool XI.
Jurgen Klopp's side had chances in the opening stages but fell behind on the half hour mark as Manchester United target Benjamin Sesko coolly finished off a slick Salzburg counter-attack. The 19-year-old looked sharp and caused the Reds issues all night with his pace and energy in behind.
