The Arne Slot era at Liverpool got underway with a narrow preseason victory over Real Betis in Pittsburgh Friday evening.
Scorers: Szoboszlai 34′
The Premier League giants set out with a healthy mix of superstar first-team players and youngsters in the starting lineup, as did their opponents from LaLiga on the night.
While Liverpool dominated the ball in the opening half-hour, they did little to threaten former teammate Adrián in the Betis goal until Dominik Szoboszlai collected a slick Mo Salah pass before slotting home his shot into the bottom corner.
The ball appeared to be stuck in midfield throughout most of the second-half, as the tempo dropped while the two managers made a host of changes.
The two teams continue their preparation for the new season in the coming days as Liverpool take on Premier League rivals Arsenal, while Betis face off with Manchester United.
