Ryan Gravenberch has been one of the standout players in the first month of Liverpool’s season, and he enjoyed another splendid game as the Reds made a victorious return to the Champions League on Tuesday night.
The Dutchman made a whopping seven interceptions in the 3-1 win over AC Milan at the San Siro (Sofascore), perhaps none more crucial than the one in the 67th minute to cut out a pass from Strahinja Pavlovic.

The LFC midfielder took one touch to regain possession for his team before playing a sublime pass to Dominik Szoboszlai. He laid it off to Cody Gakpo, who embarked on a surging run before returning the ball to the Hungarian to dispatch it to the net for the clinching goal.
Whilst our number 8 claimed the goalscoring credit, the move simply wouldn’t have happened were it not for Gravenberch winning possession in Liverpool’s half of the pitch a few seconds beforehand.
It was a pivotal moment which summed up what a tremendous performance the 22-year-old enjoyed overall.
