AMC: Adam Lallana 7/10
Staked his claim for a place in the side come the start of the season with a lovely curling strike. The footwork leading up to the goal was either incredible or incredibly flukey!
ST: Danny Ings 6.5/10
Did not see much of the ball in central areas, but showed great enthusiasm and work rate in pressurising the Roar defence. Had one first-half shot on the turn well saved.
ST: Divock Origi 5.5/10
Showed plenty of power and pace but not much culture. Will clearly play second or even third fiddle to Christian Benteke when the transfer of his Belgian compatriot is confirmed.
Substitutes
Kolo Toure 6/10
One of four substitutes to come on just after the hour mark. Helped restrict Brisbane to just long-range efforts in the second half.
Joe Maguire 5.5/10
A year older than Gomez but did not make the same sort of impression in his half hour at full-back. A loan spell surely beckons.
Jordan Rossiter 6.5/10
Showed confidence on the ball in his 20 minutes on the pitch after replacing Lucas.
Rickie Lambert 6/10
Replaced Ings for the last 15 minutes. Could be one of his last cameos in his beloved Liverpool shirt.
Ryan Kent 6/10
Another youngster given a run out by Rodgers. Was not involved much in the play but will benefit from the first-team experience.
Jordon Ibe 6.5/10
Has pace to burn and could be a great impact option off the bench for Brendan Rodgers
