Free kicks are a matter for the boss at Liverpool. Dominik Szoboszlai has already converted three set pieces directly this season. While the Hungarian usually likes to unleash a powerful shot, he solved it with brains in the Champions League clash against Olympique Marseille.
Just like Ronaldinho or Lionel Messi in their prime, he cheekily shot the stationary ball under the wall and into happiness.

In recent years, many teams have placed a player lying behind the wall for exactly these kinds of free kicks to prevent such a goal. OM chose not to use this tactic in this case and Szoboszlai punished them immediately.
When celebrating his goal, he left no doubt as to who the smartest player on the field was. The lead also came at the psychologically best moment for the Reds, just before halftime. Can they secure their next away win?
