That ball moved just enough so that Pepe couldn't get his body behind it, and the spin took it out of his grasp.
Still an error, but not as bad as some are making out.
Gerrard wasn't great and I wonder if he has it in his legs to play a high energy pressing game for a full season.
On the plus side, Allen was class again, Sterling made a good impact.
I would have preferred Suarez on the right, Borini centre and Sterling switched to the left when Borini came on.
We're through though, and that's what counts.
