Reds facing final day shoot-out

Ludogorets 2 Liverpool 2

A dogged performance with few of the hallmarks of manager Brendan Rodgers’ preferred way of playing brought an end to a four-match losing run and would have repaired some badly damaged confidence had it not been for that late lapse in the Vasil Levski National Stadium, their hosts’ home from home due to their own ground not meeting Uefa criteria,

They did, however, show resilience to recover from goalkeeper Simon Mignolet’s third-minute blunder as Rickie Lambert scored his second in as many games before Jordan Henderson scored the vital second just before half-time, only for Georgi Terziev to nick an equaliser to secure a 2-2 draw at the death.
