Dominik Szoboszlai: Liverpool handed major injury boost for Manchester United showdown after worrying footage

Fortunately for Liverpool - who host Manchester United in their first Premier League game after the international break - the feedback on the 26-year-old has been largely positive.Amid worrying post-match comments and footage of Szoboszlai’s right knee being heavily strapped, he was able to complete 90 minutes of Hungary’s 2-0 win over Georgia and claimed an assist for Barnabas Varga."During the warm-up I was close to saying that I wouldn't be able to play after all,” Szoboszlai told reporters after the game. “I felt the injury during one of my shots.“But I thought to myself that, having come this far, I wasn't going to let the team down. So I tried to give everything I had, as best as I could."My leg felt good, but now the treatment process starts all over again, and I need to be ready for Tuesday."Hungary are next in action on Tuesday night as they host Northern Ireland in decisive final game from Nations League B, Group 2.Szoboszlai’s side currently sit second in the table, a point behind Northern Ireland, and know they must win to gain promotion to League A.The midfielder is likely to start in Budapest and Iraola will be hopeful the Liverpool No8 comes through the game unscathed ahead of the Man United showdown at Anfield five days later.
