Wijnaldum levelled things up
And the Uruguayan, who played the pantomime villain throughout, was partly responsible for Wijnaldum’s introduction.

Robertson was unable to continue after the break and had to be replaced by, you guessed it, supersub Wijnaldum.
Less than a minute separated the Dutchman’s two goals, and moments before his first, Suarez missed a guilt-edged opportunity to kill Liverpool’s chances with an away goal.
Instead, Liverpool remarkably went through despite Barcelona’s 3-0 first leg victory – and Reds fans will feel justice has been done.
