Aston Villa 0-0 Zrinjski Mostar
Wow!
The ball loops into the box and Villa's Nicolo Zaniolo, near the penalty spot, sends a brilliant bicycle kick towards goal which is well saved.
One of those shots that's so good you really want it to end in a goal.

Liverpool 0-0 Union Saint-Gilloise
It's all very pedestrian.
Liverpool are seeing plenty of the ball but they're not moving it quick enough to open up Union. It's lacking a bit of zip on the passes, a bit of guile.

Villa boss Unai Emery doesn't look too happy, understandably.

The Union fans are having a whale of a time.
They're linked, arms on each others' shoulders, bouncing in the away end.
They'll be more than happy with this scoreline too.

Darwin Nunez gets this one on target!
He is found with a ball over the top and slaps it towards goal from an angle but Anthony Moris does well to save.

A waste!
Liverpool have a free-kick near the Union box after a handball by Kevin Mac Allister, but Kostas Tsimikas whips it right through the box and out for a goal kick.

That Darwin Nunez miss doesn't get any better. He has so much of the net to aim at. Has to score.

Brilliant from Ryan Gravenberch, who turns his marker to dart to the byline. His low ball is cut out really well and carried clear.

Nunez really is an enigma. There are times he shows his pace power and finishing (e.g. Newcastle games) but more often it's his inability to take the easy chances that come to him. He really needs to be more clinical. Go watch vids of Sir Kenny and Rushie in their heyday. Maybe that'll help

Former Liverpool winger on TNT SportsGreat night for him tonight. Here at Anfield, strong team, no excuses.
When you are at home on European nights there isn't really an excuse and let's hope he is on the winning side tonight and has a good performance.

Big chance!
The biggest lad on the park, Gustaf Nilsson, rises highest but gets under his header, sending the ball over the bar.

Union apply a bit of pressure and win a free-kick on the right, just outside the Liverpool box. It's Kostas Tsimikas conceding it with a slide and then handball.

Aston Villa 0-0 Zrinjski Mostar
Zrinjski are probably having the better chances. Mario Ticinovic flies down the left, cuts in and hammers a shot just over from 20 yards.
