Adam Lallana – 5

Adam Lallana wasn’t the most involved player on the pitch if I’m honest. He struggled to get into space and appeared to turn into danger whenever he had possession. Sakho carved him out a chance late in the first half, but Lallana opted to pass instead of go himself. He wasn’t as involved as we’d have liked him to be, but he took his penalty well and set the tone for the rest of the shootout.
