Morrison Misses Open Goal And Fouls Salah After Saying He Wants Liverpool To Win Title

Cardiff City captain Sean Morrison admitting he wants Liverpool to win the Premier League has resurfaced following his outing against them on Sunday.

Morrison not only missed a sitter but also conceded a penalty as Liverpool beat Cardiff 2-0 to return to the top of the table.

He fluffed his lines from point blank range before grappling Mohamed Salah inside the penalty box.

All in all, a bad day at the office for the defender.

Fans and pundits alike questioned his showing, though his defensive performance was subject to even more scrutiny after his quotes on the title race reappeared on social media.

"It's a tough one to call. I'd love Liverpool to win it," Morrison said about the title race back in October.

"I would love Liverpool to win it just because for them to get a Premier League would be fantastic for the club and for the city.

"It's such a famous club and there's so much history behind it, but it's going to take a lot to stop Man City.

"I hope it goes down to the wire. As a fan of football and a fan of the Premier League, I hope it goes down to the wire and it's exciting for all the fans involved."

Interesting. Well, one thing's for sure, it'll go down to the wire with both Liverpool and Manchester City mounting an unprecedented title challenge.

City resume their campaign against cross-town rivals United on Wednesday with Liverpool back in league action on Friday.
