#EPL: He didn’t sprint back – Roy Keane blames Chelsea star for Liverpool goal

Manchester United legend, Roy Keane has blamed Chelsea captain, Reece James for not sprinting back and trying to put off Luis Diaz for Liverpool’s opening goal during both teams’ Premier League tie on Sunday.

Chelsea drew 1-1 with Liverpool in their Premier League first game of the season at Stamford Bridge.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side conceded a goal just 18 minutes into the game, with Mohamed Salah racing down the right flank before cutting inside and playing a brilliant pass for Diaz to tuck home.

However, Axel Disasi levelled the scores some minutes later to ensure both Chelsea and Liverpool got a point each.

But Keane was far from impressed with the effort shown by James in the build-up to Liverpool’s goal.

The Irishman feels the England defender gave up too easily rather than chasing back after losing Diaz.

Speaking on Sky Sports, Keane said: “It’s brilliant, really good play from Liverpool, but James can actually see him [Diaz] running! And James still doesn’t sprint back!

“That is the bit I don’t understand.

“We talk about tactics and systems, but James is looking at [Diaz] running off him. Maybe he will argue afterwards,

“Well I’m a wing-back and that is not my job” but he sees him running and he still doesn’t [track it]. You have to sprint back as if your life depended on it!”
