What To Watch: Liverpool Players on International Duty

Did you miss UEFA Nations League? Too bad, you’re getting UEFA
Nations League. Here’s a look ahead to Thursday and Friday’s
fixtures.

If there has been one blessing from this COVID-19 pandemic, it
has been the lack of international football. Liverpool-related news is somehow even slower now than
it was during lockdown.

So. I guess here’s a guide for watching some international
fixtures over the next few days?

Finland vs. WalesThursday, Sept. 3,
7:45 PM BST

So, we start off with the most tenuous connection: once and
future Liverpool loanee Harry Wilson. His Wales side travels to
Finland in Group 4 of Nations League B. Bonus, you get to watch
Finnish striker Teemu Pukki.

Netherlands vs. PolandFriday, Sept. 4,
7:45 PM BST

At least this match comes with some real sexiness. Virgil van
Dijk and Gini Wijnaldum? Yes, please. And it might even be a pretty
good match up against Robert Lewandowski’s Poland to kick off Group
1 in Nations League A.

Scotland vs. IsraelFriday, Sept. 4,
7:45 PM BST

Andy Robertson will lead Scotland out against Israel in Group 2
of Nations League B. One day I will ask someone to explain the UEFA
Nations League and their weird groupings to me. But today is not
that day.

So, that’s your Thursday and Friday nights sorted. You can thank
me later. Unless you choose to watch literally anything else, in
which case I would completely understand.
