Liverpool faces injury loss of Szoboszlai and Frimpong after Brentford match

Summary

Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola confirmed that Dominik Szoboszlai and Jeremie Frimpong will be sidelined 'for some time' due to hamstring injuries sustained during Saturday's 2-1 victory against Brentford. Szoboszlai, who had previously missed two matches with the same issue, left the field after 32 minutes, while Frimpong limped off six minutes into the second half after coming on as a substitute. Both players will undergo scans to assess the severity of their injuries. The win was significant for Liverpool, though the injuries overshadowed the result, as they trailed before capitalizing on Brentford's two red cards.
