Liverpool FC preseason matches against Como 1907

Overview

Liverpool FC concluded its preseason preparations with a double-header against Como 1907 on August 16, 2026. Following an initial closed-door fixture that ended in a 0-0 draw, the public match at Anfield saw Liverpool secure a 2-0 victory.

Cody Gakpo opened the scoring in the 23rd minute, assisted by Jeremie Frimpong. Debutant Jeremy Jacquet doubled the advantage in the 44th minute by converting a cross from Gakpo. Manager Andoni Iraola praised the performances of Jacquet, Frimpong, and fellow debutant Ronald Araujo as the squad prepares for their Premier League opener against Newcastle.

Prior to the matches, a Como delegation, managed by Cesc Fàbregas, visited Anfield to pay tribute to the victims of the Hillsborough disaster and to honor the memory of players Diogo Jota and André Silva. While the Como side enters their Serie A season following an undefeated summer, Liverpool’s series served as the final test for Iraola. Midfielder Curtis Jones was notably absent amid speculation regarding interest from Inter Milan.
