A real shock result as Halfman surrendered the league lead to Surreal! Cers were deep and defensive in Blanc’s new 3-5-2 system for most of the game but finally began to venture forward after the break, with SMS seeing an absolute thriker ruled out for a close offside before Ben Yedder shocked the hosts with a clutch finish. Rodgers’s men need to do better when it comes to beating defensively focused teams.
