A teriffic way to close out the week, starting in earnest when an electric counterattack from Neymar saw the Brazilian bag one of those goals he’s been roundly failing to pick up all season. The Dawgs had two efforts ruled out for offside before falling even further behind to Muller’s header but they finally got on the board thanks to a moment of impressive skill from Hazard. It always seemed likeliest that the hosts would come out of this with a result and their persistence did eventually pay off, leaving Arbor Red’s attempts to stave off last place thwarted once again.
