Barcola's hat trick helps Liverpool rout LASK, Feyenoord fights back in
Champions League
LINZ, Austria (AP) --- Bradley Barcola scored a hat trick as Liverpool coasted
to a 6-3 win at Austria's LASK in the Champions League on Wednesday.
They were his first goals for the club since joining from European champion
Paris Saint-Germain in the offseason.
Ronald Arajo also got his first Liverpool goal as he broke the deadlock with a
header from a corner, less than two minutes before Barcola scored in the 24th
from a lay-off by Lewis Koumas.
Ryan Gravenberch struck the post before Barcola got his second in the 37th,
finishing with aplomb after being played through by Florian Wirtz.
Jeremie Frimpong, one of the smallest players on the field, headed Liverpool's
fourth in off the right post in the 51st.
Robert Ljubicic pulled a goal back in the 63rd, a minute after going on as a
substitute, before Frimpong gave Barcola a simple tap-in to complete his hat
trick in the 66th.
Koumas was left free to get Liverpool's sixth six minutes later -- it was the
21-year-old forward's first Liverpool goal.
But Florian Flecker -- another LASK substitute -- got the biggest cheer when he
scored his team's second with a diving header in the 74th, four minutes before
he got another to complete the scoring.
Liverpool coach Andoni Iraola dropped Virgil van Dijk to the substitutes' bench
with French defender Jrmy Jacquet starting. The Dutch star replaced Jacquet
for the last half hour or so.
Feyenoord fights back Anis Hadj Moussa scored twice as Dutch leader Feyenoord came from behind to beat visiting Como 3-2 in the other early game. Assane Diao gave Como the lead with the team's first shot in the 18th minute after outmuscling Javi Lpez on the right and firing inside the far post. But Gjivai Zechil replied two minutes later with a spectacular shot, and Algeria winger Hadj Moussa scored early in the second half before sealing the result in the 82nd. Tasos Douvikas scored Como's consolation in stoppage time.
More games later Scandal-hit Manchester City was hosting fellow big spender PSG later for its first European game since being charged with financial rule-breaking over nearly a decade in the Premier League. Also later, Real Madrid was visiting Roma for coach Jos Mourinho's return, Bodo/Glimt was playing Borussia Dortmund, Real Betis was entertaining Porto, Fenerbahe was visiting Aston Villa, Stuttgart traveled to Slovan Bratislava, and Ukraine's Shakhtar Donetsk was hosting AEK Athens at Chelsea's ground in London. ___ See AP's full soccer coverage here
