“Midfielder Joe Cole scored the quickest European goal in Liverpool’s illustrious history to set his under-strength side up for a 4-1 victory over Steaua Bucharest at Anfield. The England international took just 25 seconds of their opening Europa League Group K match to find the net for his first strike since joining on a free transfer from Chelsea in the summer.” (ESPN)

“Perhaps more than most sports, football excels in creating and sustaining clichés. A game of two halves doesn’t tell the whole story of Liverpool’s match against Steaua, but it’s pretty damn accurate. We take a look at the game in more detail and consider why things changed so dramatically after half time. Liverpool began the game in a 4-2-3-1 formation which featured multiple changes from the Birmingham match.” (Micro LFC)
