I've got the goal on sky plus and have watched it about ten times. Seriously guys Sakho and Lovren DON'T go for the same man.
Sakho doesn'the go for ANY man, Lovren tracks the six and it goes above them. It is 100% Origi though is tasked with picking up the header if it clears the centre halves. He is with Hummers and goes to sleep. It happens. Had Sakho also not nodded off Lovren could have got it as he would,t have had to track the six.
That's the point Mick if Sakho picks up his man the train moves along the track and Lovren is free to pick up Hummels. Because Sakho, in my opinion, believes he has it covered and Lovren isn't convinced Lovren doesn't drop deeper and keeps an eye on the man in front of him therefore allowing for Hummels to get in behind them.
Of course it's Lallana who is picking him up, Klopp has admitted it was his mistake in asking Lallana to take this position and not Origi:

Klopp apologises for his role in Dortmund's equaliser: "I decided to have Lallana in that position instead of Origi so sorry about this."
But the point is that everything could have been avoided with better work from our Centre backs. To call it a mistake may be harsh but it is poor positioning.
