Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler praised young defender Conor Bradley following Liverpool's 1-0 victory against Real Madrid at Anfield. The win marked back-to-back victories for Liverpool after their recent 2-0 triumph over Aston Villa.
Conor Bradley was given the starting position at right-back due to Jeremie Frimpong’s absence. He was tasked with marking Brazilian star Vinicius Jr during the match.
"Bradley stepped up to the task with complete ease, silencing the former Ballon d'Or contender throughout the game and playing a huge role in his side's victory."
Bradley's defensive performance was exceptional, completing 100% of his tackles (3/3), making one interception, winning seven ground duels, making seven recoveries, and performing two clearances, according to Sofascore.
While Alexis Mac Allister earned headlines for the winning goal, Fowler highlighted Bradley's quiet but vital contribution in defense that helped secure Liverpool’s victory.
