Click here to see more of our brilliant Match Zone, including Mario Balotelli's heat map Yes, it was him again. Mario Balotelli, given a shot at redemption by Brendan Rodgers after his shirt-swapping shame against Real Madrid, was booked for using an elbow and then missed an injury-time sitter as Liverpool’s post-Luis Suarez problems in front of goal continued. Both managers offered encouraging words for Balotelli afterwards, citing his willingness and work-rate, but that is surely the bare minimum for a £16million striker. He will know deep down it was another disastrous day at the office, one of a growing number since he swapped the San Siro for Anfield.
