Florian Wirtz’s performance for Liverpool against AC Milan divides opinion after the first defeat
Florian Wirtz made his debut in Liverpool on Saturday and a compilation of his display made the fans talk online.
Wirtz became Liverpool’s record signature earlier this summer, joining a change of 116 million pounds from Bayer Leverkusen to a huge declaration of intention of the Premier League champions.
The German international, who wrote a contract until 2030, made his first appearance in a friendly victory late on Stoke City at the AXA training center and made fans salivate by looking at the strengths.
Wirtz and his Liverpool teammates intensified their preparations for the new campaign with a friendly against AC Milan in Hong Kong as part of a two -game trip to Asia.
But the Reds were beaten 4-2, with Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo on Target and Rafael Leao, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Noah Okafor (2) finding the net for the Rossenderteri.
With a new striker of 79 million pounds Sterling Hugo Ekitike is not ready for an appearance and Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz not in the team, Wirtz aligned himself as a fake new for the shock.
The 22 -year -old played 45 minutes and demonstrated his drop in signature of the shoulder between the lines, but did not succeed in a goal or aid despite the accuracy of 91% and the 1/2 dribbles finished.

An X fan commented: “Florian Wirtz, I get up and applauded.”
But another said: “Is it a composition of failure.”
A third wrote: It’s ok, I suppose, nothing super impressive. “”
A fourth said: “This composition was made to make it seem good and I see nothing impressive.”
A last person did not agree, adding: the quality of their first touch is crazy. Never spoils and is always preparing for the next action. “”
