I am very happy that Roy's first competitive game was success by winning 2 goals from Ngog. This is an article that talks about the game:
European giants Liverpool and Juventus began life under new coaches with victories in the first legs of their UEFA Europa League third qualifying round ties on Thursday.

A David Ngog brace gave Roy Hodgson's Liverpool a 2-0 victory at Macedonian minnows Rabotnicki, while Luigi Delneri oversaw an equally straightforward 2-0 win for the Italian side at Irish team Shamrock Rovers. Liverpool and Juve have had to undergo the ignominy of the Europa League preliminary rounds after each finished seventh in their respective leagues last season, prompting managerial changes at both Anfield and the Stadio Olimpico.

With ten FIFA World Cupâ„¢ players including Steven Gerrard, Joe Cole and Javier Mascherano all short of fitness, Hodgson fielded a team partly made up of fringe players at the Filip II Arena in Skopje. Liverpool took the lead in the 17th minute when Lucas picked out Ngog and the Frenchman capitalised on Egzon Belica's slip to dink the ball over goalkeeper Martin Bogatinov and then tap it into the empty net.

Ngog made it 2-0 shortly before the hour when he crisply volleyed in Martin Kelly's right-wing cross from six yards out.

Delneri handed first competitive starts to a number of new signings, including goalkeeper Marco Storari, former Bari centre-back Leonardo Bonucci and on-loan winger Pepe. Brazilian-Italian striker Amauri put the Serie A side ahead in the third minute in Dublin, finishing deftly after a sharp one-two with Diego, before netting his second with 15 minutes to play.

Bundesliga side Stuttgart emerged from their game at Norwegians Molde with a 3-2 victory, but only after the hosts had twice fought back from a goal down. Sebastian Rudy's opener was cancelled out in the 65th minute by a fortunate goal from Mattias Mostrom, who charged down an attempted clearance and sent the ball bouncing past goalkeeper Sven Ulreich.

Zdravko Kuzmanovic restored the visitors' lead with a free-kick in the 74th minute, only for Magne Hoseth to reply two minutes later, before substitute Martin Harnik's back-post header settled the game in the 82nd minute.

Elsewhere, Sporting Lisbon won 1-0 at Norway's Nordsjaelland and French side Montpellier prevailed 1-0 at Gyor of Hungary. A goal from new signing Dennis Rommedahl gave Greek giants Olympiakos a 2-1 win at home to Israelis Maccabi Tel-Aviv but Galatasaray let slip a 2-0 lead in the last 10 minutes to draw 2-2 against Serbia's OFK Beograd in Istanbul. Maritimo of Portugal enjoyed the night's biggest victory, winning 8-2 at home to hapless Welsh outfit Bangor City.

The second legs take place on 3-5 August, with heavyweights such as Manchester City, Napoli, Borussia Dortmund and Porto all due to enter the competition in the following round.

disappointed

torressssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. welcome back :)

Kalinić must do better than this

Look at Gerard shameful diver, that's not the way captain should act.

Blackburn rovers were very lucky


Liverpool's season could now be over
sad

Not a Great Game. Both Di Santa and Ngog shoulda scored. a somewhat shaky perfomance by us.

lucas didnt do bad. and yes to everyones sake. we did miss a little creativism from him.

hopefully aquallani shows up on florentina night!

U lose and draw to teams like this when u only have 2 players that can win u games

poor first half and in the second blackburn were the better side by far and should have got the win. good point for them though

What happened, Liverpool?

GOOD EFFORT, glad the team has a week to train and soon we will be hitting great form..awoooooooooooooooooooo go the reds!

go liverpool!

Di Santo, should have scored. I want him to get better before he comes back to Chelsea so he can at least have some confidence.

Looks like the Winter Transfer Period is our only hope of getting into the top 4
Hope Rafa has some good plans worked out for the transfer period .. he shud think more smart and be like the intelligent man he was when he signed Torres for LFC .. man i miss last season and 2005 .. D:

DAVID VILLA for LIVERPOOL !!!!!!!!

YNWA & ¡Viva España!

N'gog and Babel should change their names to pathetic and worthless,
and everyone knows Lucas is no Alonso but Lucas is just not good enough for this level of football. 20m riding the bench is bloody foolish. Best of luck versus the gooners.
