There was pace, fury and intensity in abundance. There was a definitive shift in Liverpool’s tactical approach and there was a discernible optimism among the travelling Liverpool supporters with their German flags.
What there wasn’t, was a goal, which may be no bad thing for a Liverpool side still struggling to hold its own defensively. But it wasn’t quite how the arrival of the messianic coach from Mainz and Dortmund had been billed.
Something a little more dramatic was required: a stunning counter attacking goal or some football played with a flourish. What we got was a game of enormous commitment on the part of both sides, which Tottenham were unfortunate not to win, and some hints of a Liverpool renaissance.
