Hugo Ekitike
23-Year-Old
Liverpool
Premier
Wasteful in win
Ekitike recorded three shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Tuesday's 1-0 victory against Inter Milan. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 39th minute.
ANALYSIS
Ekitike took three shots but didn't really have the chance to get settled over any of his chances. The striker was rushed largely and couldn't really put any of the half chances away. Ekitike got the start alongside Alexander Isak, as manager Arne Slot tried out a two-striker formation, something Liverpool could turn to more in coming weeks.

Dealing with back issue
Ekitike contributed a season high four shots in the Champions League before being forced off in the 61st minute of Wednesdays 4-1 defeat against PSV due to a back issue, coach Arne Slot said in a press conference, according to the Liverpool Echo. "It felt as if he couldn't move as he did [in] the first half. So, that's why our press was, I think, also a little bit off. And he just told me that in the first five to 10 minutes of the first half he already felt his back too much. That's also why he had to go out."
