Jacquet scores on Liverpool debut in friendly win over Como

On his debut for Liverpool, Jeremy Jacquet netted a goal as the Reds secured a 2-0 friendly victory over Italian Serie A club Como at Anfield on Sunday. The 21-year-old French centre-back, acquired for a reported £60 million ($81 million) in January, had been sidelined due to a knee injury until recently.

Jacquet demonstrated his capabilities early on with some well-timed challenges, ultimately scoring from Cody Gakpo's cross in the 44th minute to give Liverpool the lead. Midway through the first half, Ronald Araujo replaced Jacquet, who made his first appearance for Liverpool. Both players were praised for their impressive performances, with Iraola, Como's manager, stating that the two debutants played "really well."

Liverpool took an early lead in the 23rd minute through Jeremie Frimpong, who had made his own debut for the club. The midfielder's contribution was a key factor in Liverpool's comfortable win. Gravenberch put the closest shot on target in the second half, his effort clipping the crossbar, but the match ended in a clean sheet for Liverpool.

The manager Iraola expressed satisfaction with the team's organization and composure throughout the game, while also acknowledging the importance of securing a clean sheet before the Premier League season starts against Newcastle the following Sunday.
