Tsimikas’ impressive stats and two key passes against Norwich
Costas Tsimikas took a basic shirt and sweated it out in the Liverpool v Norwich game, with the international defender boasting some impressive stats where all the keys and duels won stand out, among other things.
Jurgen Klopp has the luxury of rotating the Liverpool team this season as he has several excellent options in his squad and the duo at the left end of defense is case in point.
And that’s because while Andy Robertson is one of the best at his position in Europe and has rightly claimed the main team shirt for years, Costas Tsimikas’ presence this season shows that when the Scot isn’t playing, the German is can be absolutely calm.
That’s exactly what happened on Saturday afternoon (19/2) in the 3-1 win against Norwich in the 26th game, with the international full-back taking a break and being one of the Reds’ top players, both in the defensive game Liverpool as well as the striker.
It wasn’t just his assists to Mane in the 1-1 period and the two good opportunities he had in the first half to celebrate his first Premier League goal, but also the impressive numbers by which he scored Statistics filled with the many victories in ground and air duels, key passes and a high level of accuracy in transfers are among the most characteristic.
