# These fans react as Liverpool win UEFA Super Cup

Liverpool won the UEFA Super Cup for the fourth time on Wednesday night, beating Chelsea 5-4 on penalties in Istanbul.

Oliver Giroud opened the scoring and Sadio Mane equalised early in the second half.

Liverpool’s brilliant No.10 then added a second in extra-time before Jorginho equalised from the penalty spot, taking the match into a shootout.

Adrian then saved Tammy Abraham’s spot-kick – the only failed effort out of 10 attempts – making him an instant hero and sealing the victory for Jurgen Klopp’s side.

Liverpool fans expressed their delight on Twitter after the game.

### READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT

In truth, Liverpool were far from their sparkling best against Chelsea, but they are suddenly making a habit of winning trophies.

In years gone by, they would have succumbed in a match such as this, but they are made of sterner stuff these days.

After such a long, gruelling night, however, Saturday’s trip to Southampton becomes a far harder proposition.

Klopp will have to consider a fair bit of rotation, with both bodies and minds potentially tired.
