Pre-Season Tussle in Hong Kong!…
Strap on your shin pads and lace up your zaniest football boots! Liverpool, the superheroes of the footie world, are rolling into Hong Kong to face off against AC Milan in a match that promises more fireworks than a squirrel in a Roman candle factory. This pre-season friendly is gobbling up the memory of the legendary 2005 Champions League final like a hungry hamster at a buffet! Liverpool’s been hopping around Asia like a kangaroo on a sugar rush, clocking wins against Preston and Stoke City, but Milan is here to prove they’re not just another freebie appetizer.
Tune in to the Kai Tak Stadium escapade at 7:30 pm local time, that’s 12:30 pm for the folks in the foggy UK. But oh boo, if you’re a US fan, you might have to set your rooster alarms early—7:30 am Eastern or gulp, 4:30 am Pacific. UK fans can catch this toe-tickling event on LFCTV while US viewers dive into the fray on Paramount+. If you’ve ever dreamed of watching footie while juggling pancakes, now is your time!
Hold onto your hats, kiddies, because there might be some fresh faces joining the match. The new recruit, Hugo Ekitike, could be flying onto the pitch like a seagull on a French fry, but he might wait a tad until next week’s Japan adventure. Meanwhile, Alexis Mac Allister’s injury means he’s taking a rain check. Keep your eyes peeled, though, as the Colombian conundrum, Luis Diaz, could make a surprise cameo if the stars align—or if pigs fly, whichever comes first!
