After falling behind to Swansea, Firmino finds equalizer

After Swansea scored off an early corner kick, Liverpool seemed to struggle in the first half. The team who couldn’t stop scoring goals in recent weeks suddenly took on their performance that earned them their only loss so far this season, a 2-0 loss to Burnley.

But a different Liverpool team showed up in the second half and amid their attacking, they were rewarded with this Roberto Firmino goal.

It wasn’t the cleanest of headers, Firmino barely got contact. But it worked because if he got clean contact, the header probably would’ve gone over the bar. It was just right for the situation and Liverpool went level with Swansea.
