Liverpool struggles continue in Napoli loss

Liverpool's poor preseason form continued as they lost 3-0 in a friendly against Napoli in Edinburgh on Sunday.

On their summer tour of the U.S., the European champions failed to win as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Sporting CP at New York's Yankee Stadium, having lost 3-1 against Borussia Dortmund at Notre Dame Stadium and 2-1 to Sevilla at Fenway Park.

In Scotland, Jurgen Klopp fielded a strong XI with Virgil van Dijk in defence, Jordan Henderson and Gigi Wijnaldum in midfield and Divock Origi up front. However, they almost went behind early on as a sloppy pass from Trent Alexander-Arnold gave the Italian side a chance which was wasted.
