Champions League ratings: Liverpool were denied by a late Ludogorets goal…
Champions League ratings: Ludogorets 2-2 Liverpool – The Reds Champions League hopes are still very much in the balance after being held to a draw in Bulgaria.
Brendan Rodgers’ side were 1-0 down inside two minutes after Dani Abalo pounced on a Simon Mignolet mistake. Rickie Lambert and Jordan Henderson had the Reds in front before half-time, but it was Ludogorets who had the final say.
George Terziev headed home in the closing stages, and we must now beat Basel at Anfield in two weeks time in order to progress to the Last 16. Read tonight’s ratings below:
GK) Simon Mignolet – 4
Made the mistake for the first goal and did little to prevent the second – a poor night for the Belgian.
RB) Javi Manquillo – 6
Showed commitment and got forward when he could, but his inexperience at this level still shows at times.
