[Video Goals] Ludogorets 2-2 Liverpool: Late Goal Dents Reds Hopes
Liverpool’s hopes of qualifying for the knockout stages of the Champions League are hanging in the balance after being held to a 2-2 draw by Ludogorets
Liverpool’s hopes of qualifying for the knockout stages of the Champions League are hanging in the balance after being held to a 2-2 draw by Ludogorets in Bulgaria tonight.
The hosts got off to a flier when Abalo was on hand to fire home after Simon Mignolet spilled the initial shot but Rickie Lambert scored in his second successive game with a close range header for 1-1 just five minutes later.
Liverpool then took the lead just before half time when Raheem Sterling put in a superb cross to find Jordan Henderson who cooly slotted home for 1-2.
However, with just two minutes remaining, Ludogorets found an equaliser when Terziev headed home from close range following a well worked corner.
The draw leaves Liverpool sitting two points off second placed Basel with one game remaining meaning they’ll have to beat the Swiss side at Anfield in two weeks to qualify for the last 16.
