February 19, 2011 - Liverpool 1: Wigan1- Missed opportunity as Suarez's shots hit the post and the crossbar in his 1st start...

LFC Player of the Game: Luiz Suarez!!!

Game Summary: With Gerrard and Agger both out injured, Liverpool was forced to switch from their newly successful formation 3-4-2-1- back to 4-4-2/4-3-1-2 having to deal with Wigan speedy wingers. Key players such as Kuyt, Meireles and Lucas got fatigued for the mid-week international friendlies, Liverpool has to rely on Suarez to produce his magic against Wigan in his first start for the Reds and he didn't disappoint! Suarez has been a headache for the Wigan defense for the whole game. With his quick turn, speed and dribbling skills, Wigan defense can only stop him by fouls that provided the Reds several free-kick opportunities. Unfortunately, Suarez's low shots hit the post in the 1st half while his curving free-kick hit the crossbar in the 2nd half that could have turned the disappointing home draw into a 3 point well-deserved victory. Reds has still been undefeated for six games in a row and stayed at 6th in the league. Keep on going, Reds!
