Liverpool builds a three-goal halftime lead and beats LASK 6–3

Araujo opens it, Barcola adds two

Liverpool took a 3–0 lead into halftime against LASK Linz on October 14. Araujo opened the scoring after a Tsimikas corner, and Barcola followed with two goals. Liverpool had established its advantage before LASK scored, with Barcola already one goal away from a hat-trick at the break.

The second half brings goals at both ends

Frimpong headed in a Tsimikas cross to extend Liverpool’s lead to 4–0. Ljubicic then got LASK on the board, but Liverpool answered through Barcola, who converted a Frimpong cross to complete his hat-trick. That exchange kept Liverpool’s lead at four goals even after LASK’s first response.

Koumas scored next to make it 6–1. He also had two efforts disallowed for offside, while Gravenberch hit the post. Those chances did not add to Liverpool’s total, leaving Koumas’s goal as the team’s last of the match.

Flecker scores twice in the finish

Flecker scored twice after Koumas’s goal, cutting into the margin late in the scoring sequence. LASK’s three goals came after Liverpool had built its halftime lead, and Flecker’s pair accounted for the home side’s final two. Liverpool finished with a 6–3 win, led by Barcola’s three goals and further scores from Araujo, Frimpong and Koumas.
