Coutinho nets twice in Liverpool friendly win


After being overlooked by Brazil, Philippe Coutinho
inspired Liverpool to a 3-2 friendly win on Friday as he
scored twice against Wolves.

Philippe Coutinho continued his good form in front of goal with
two strikes as Liverpool beat Wolves 3-2 in a friendly.

The forward, who was dropped by Dunga for his latest Brazil
squad, only needed eight minutes to add to his three recent
Premier League goals against Chelsea and Crystal Palace.

Compatriot Roberto Firmino, also overlooked by the national
team, added a second early in the second half for Jurgen
Klopp's side, before Wolves mounted a comeback to level soon
after with a brace from Adam Le Fondre.

Liverpool and Coutinho were not to be denied, though, as the
23-year-old lashed home a late winner.

Klopp also took the opportunity to give Lucas Leiva, Alberto
Moreno, Dejan Lovren and Kolo Toure some minutes ahead of
the trip to Manchester City in the league on November 21.
