Match Report 080223: Torres! Torres! Torres!

3-2 and this game belongs to Torres. Without Carra, the defense was really a shame. Fortunately Torres is instinctive and scored 3 great goals. Now he became the first Liverpool striker to score more than 20 goals in a season, and is on his way to have the best debut season ever for us.

Players Rating:
Reina: 6.5 Not at fault for both goals.
Finnan: 6.5 Need to improve in defense.
Arbeloa: 6.5 Make-shift center back and was at fault at times.
Hyypia: 6.5 Getting tired.
Aurelio: 6.5 Didn't offer much in attack.
Lucas: 6.5 An average game.
Mascherano: 7 Good as usual.
Gerrard: 7 Dynamic as usual.
Babel: 6.5 Gradually improving.
Kuyt: 7 Did well playing out-wide.
Torres: 9.5 Individual brilliance.

Substitutions:
Benayoun/Riise: 6.5 Not much contribution.
Crouch: 6.5 Not enough time to impress.

Rafa: 6.5 Need to address the defensive problem.

Middlesbrough: 6.5 Credits to them in really pushing us hard.

Man of the Match: Torres. 21 goals and counting.
