Embattled Grant could yet have the last laugh

ONE of the Anfield’s favourite chants was conspicuous by its absence on Tuesday night, although its airing would surely never have been more appropriate.

“John Arne Riise, ooh, ah,” they like to sing, “I wanna know how you scored that goal.”

Over the years, the Norwegian has hit a few 30 yard screamers into the top corner — and a good many more into Row Z — but nothing he has ever done in terms of stunning the Kop could come close to matching the impact of his 94th minute intervention on Tuesday night.
