Things started quite positively, with the Rossoneri having a few early chances, and the first goal came inside 10 minutes. Christian Pulisic was slipped in by Magrassi - with a delightful ball, we should add - and he slotted it under the 'keeper's legs. The following 20 minutes were quite back and forward, with Virtus threatening a little more with time, and they eventually made the Diavolo pay.
New Zealand head coach Scott Robertson is refusing to entertain the idea that Ireland are in some way at a disadvantage given their lack of recent time together, at one stage referring to Andy Farrell's men as "the Lions" during his press conference in Chicago this afternoon. The All Blacks have played six games since the majority of Ireland's players played their last Test match for the Lions and most of Andy Farrell's men have only had one provincial game since their summer break.
I think the key for Gameweek 4 is to stick with the Liverpool assets you have, do not buy or sell this week until the starters become clear. There's the appealing fixture of Burnley away, but there's no guarantee Isak starts in that game. He has had a disrupted August where he hasn't trained consistently or played any competitive minutes. He only played 18 minutes across two fixtures for Sweden over the international break and so it would be a surprise to be on the team sheet this weekend.
