Goal.com http://www.goal.com/en/match/46043/liverpool-vs-sunderland/player-ratings José Reina Paez6.5 Wasn't really troubled during the first half as Sunderland failed to make any clear cut chances. He was unlucky with the penalty, he guessed correctly but the ball squeezed underneath him. Glen Johnson 6.5 As we have come to expect from Johnson he made some good runs forward down the right wing but his final delivery was lacking which caused much frustration for the home fans. Jamie Carragher 6.5 Carragher had a fault free first half, he looked composed on the ball and in control of runs made by Bent and Malbranque. Martin Skrtel 6.5 Made some good surging runs from the back but his own shot flew well wide of Mignolet's goal. Was kept busy by Bent throughout the first half but in general he kept the England man quiet. Paul Konchesky 6.0 The new signing looked comfortable up against Elmohamdy but after injuring himself making a sliding tackle the full back was substituted. From replays there didn't appear to be any problems but he limped off the pitch and was replaced by Daniel Agger. Christian Poulsen 5.5 Flop of the match Gave away the penalty that allowed Sunderland to equalise during the first half. It was hard to see why the midfielder had his arm in the air when Elmohamady crossed the ball, but he did and referee Stuart Atwell had no hesitation in awarding the spot kick. Poulsen struggled during the first half and gave the ball away far too easily far too often. Didn't get involved much in the second half and was substituted for Ngog. Steven Gerrard 7.5 Top of the Match Playing in a central midfield role as opposed to an attacking role the Liverpool captain did his best to control the game but a lack of movement ahead of him made it very difficult for him to do so. Came to Liverpool's rescue again in the second half when he got on the end of Torres' deflected cross to head past Reina. Dirk Kuyt 6.5 Was on the same wavelength as Torres to open the scoring but otherwise he wasn't really involved heavily in the first half action. Raúl Meireles6.5 Meireles was very lively in the opening 20 minutes of the first half but he drifted out of the match after that. He showed some very nice touches and linked up well with Glen Johnson down the right wing. Joe Cole 6.5 The England midfielder drifted in and out of the first half action, at times he looked very creative but in truth they were only fleeting moments. Fernando Torres 7.0 Was very alert for the Liverpool goal and took advantage of Michael Turner's mistake and found Kuyt who was able to slid home the opening goal of the game. Otherwise he found it hard to get involved in the match and was marked well by Bramble and Turner. Made a great run down the wing to setup Gerrard for Liverpool's equaliser. Subs David Ngog 6.5 Replaced Poulsen and was the catalyst to get Liverpool going again. He provided more support to Torres and gave the Sunderland defenders something more to think about. He had a couple of good chances to score but was unable to take any of them. Daniel Agger 6.0 Replaced Konchesky in the first half and was very comfortable at full back, he controlled Elmohamady well and provided a good attacking threat when he was needed to. Had a chance to give Liverpool the lead in the second half but was denied by Mignolet. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sky Sport http://www.skysports.com/football/match_facts/0,19762,11065_3286227,00.html Pepe Reina 7 Jamie Carragher 7 Paul Konchesky 6 Glen Johnson 6 Martin Skrtel 7 Steven Gerrard 8 Christian Poulsen 6 Joe Cole 7 Raul Meireles 7 Dirk Kuyt 7 Fernando Torres 7 Subs Daniel Agger * 6 David Ngog ** 6 --
