TOUGH WEEK BUT NO SZOB STORY

Dom vows to put pen pain & cup howler behind him

- BY IAN DOYLE

DOMINIK SZOBOSZLAI hopes tonight's Champions League encounter will be the perfect tonic after a “tough week” for the Liverpool star.

As the Reds prepare for a trip to Marseille, a spot-kick failure from the midfielder has increased the scrutiny on manager Arne Slot.

His penalty miss against Burnley on Saturday (below) underlined Liverpool's inability to capitalise on their domination as they were held to a costly fourth successive Premier League draw.

For Szoboszlai, it capped a strange week which began with a blistering FA Cup goal against Barnsley - only to soon be accused of disrespect in gifting a goal to the League One side.
