Southampton

The World Cup-winning Argentina goalkeeper made a blunder to hand the Reds a lead after just 61 seconds of the game. Harvey Elliott entered the penalty box after exchanging a quick one-two with Mohamed Salah and tried to keep a cross in front of the goal. As Martinez tried to grip the ball, he got off-balance and fumbled before accidentally pushing the ball into the net.
