In the early hours of this morning, Liverpool eliminated Norwich 3-0 in the League Cup, according to Opta's statistics, Takumi Minamino scored 6 official match goals for Liverpool (1 goal in the Premier League; 4 goals in the League Cup; 1 goal in the Community Shield), becoming the first player in Liverpool's history to score the first 6 goals away from home.

Earlier, Liverpool assistant coach Lindes spoke publicly about Japan international Takumi Minamino: "In training, Klopp would say 'wow, Takumi Minamino and goalkeeper one-on-one numbers' and I said 'yes, it shows that you don't need to have a very, very fast pace to be one-on-one with the goalkeeper'. Takumi Minamino's running position is very natural and smart. ”

"That's what we need, we've needed that stuff in the first few games. He's running well and he can play well when his teammates are close to him. He's only going to get better and that's what we appreciate, that's why we brought him in at that time because we saw the potential in him and not a player who ended up in shape. ”
