Jacquet Injury Latest as £60m Liverpool Defender Misses Sunderland Friendly
- On Saturday, Liverpool defeated Sunderland 4-2 at GEODIS Park in Nashville, marking the opening friendly for both teams' United States tour and the first match under new Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola.
- The Andoni Iraola era officially began in Tennessee after the Spaniard signed a two-year contract following Arne Slot's dismissal, while Régis Le Bris managed the Black Cats, who are prioritizing squad consolidation this season.
- Kieran Morrison opened the scoring, but Enzo Le Fee and Timur Tutierov gave Sunderland a lead before Dominik Szoboszlai equalized; Federico Chiesa and Lewis Koumas then secured the Liverpool victory.
- Defender Joe Gomez suffered an injury eight minutes into the match, forcing an early substitution for Ifeanyi Ndukwe; the incident underscores Liverpool's need for additional defensive depth ahead of the season.
- Liverpool will now travel to New York to face Wrexham at Yankee Stadium next week, then conclude their North American tour with a final match against Leeds United in Chicago's Soldier Field.
