PRE MATCH REVIEW

MUZOMETER says DRAW. Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson has left striker Fernando Torres and captain Steven Gerrard out of Thursdays Europa League trip to Napoli.

POST MATCH REVIEW

A second-string Liverpool side produced a defiant display as they earned an admirable draw at Napoli in their Europa League Group K tie. The Reds survived as a Marek Hamsik shot was cleared off the line by Paul Konchesky but they had chances to win. Ryan Babel spurned a glorious opening for the visitors when his strike was saved with only the keeper to beat. David Ngog swivelled and had a shot blocked by Napolis Salvatore Aronica as both teams had to settle for a draw. The result will be a welcome glimmer of hope for under-pressure Reds manager Roy Hodgson, who used the breathing space of his team being top of their group ahead of the game to field a team mostly of youngsters and fringe players.

PRE MATCH REVIEW

MUZOMETER says MAN CITY.

POST MATCH REVIEW

Emmanuel Adebayor became the first Manchester City player to score a hat-trick in Europe in a win that puts them top of Europa League Group A. Adebayor opened the scoring with a superb turn and finish from the edge of the area early in the first half. The striker doubled the lead soon after with a header from David Silvas cross. Joel Tshimbamba scored from close range to make it 2-1 but Adebayor neatly finished another Silva cross to end the Polish sides spirited challenge. The result leaves City with seven points from three group stage games, three points clear of Lech.
