Croatian footballer Muharemović continues to impress in a Leeds shirt. Just days after a stellar debut, he was again in the starting lineup and delivered a notable performance, this time against Liverpool in a preseason match played in Chicago.

Although the match was friendly in nature and both teams fielded mixed lineups, Muharemović led Leeds' defensive line and was one of the key players in his team's remarkable comeback.

Liverpool Took the Lead, Leeds Responded

Liverpool took the lead as early as the 7th minute. After a corner, Miloš Kerkez played the ball from the near post to the far post for Luke Chambers, who headed it into the net. Florian Wirtz made it 2-0 in the 40th minute. Leeds' defense didn't react well to either goal, but neither was the Croatian defender's fault.

In the second half, the comeback unfolded. Brandon Aaronson pulled one back in the 60th minute, and just ten minutes later, the equalizer arrived. Muharemović played a brilliant long ball that bypassed Liverpool's entire defense, leading to a corner for Leeds. From that set piece, Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored to make it 2-2 in the 70th minute.

Quick Turnaround for the Win

Just two minutes later, in the 72nd minute, Sean Longstaff scored to complete the turnaround and give Leeds the lead. The match ended with a final score of 4-2 in favor of Leeds.

This is the second consecutive win for Leeds in which Muharemović played a significant role. In the first match, against Sunderland, he spent 86 minutes on the pitch in a 1-0 victory and already showed he would be a major addition.

Although the win over Liverpool carries no competitive significance, it shows that Leeds can come from behind even against more renowned opponents. For Muharemović, who joined Leeds just ten days ago, this was another opportunity to gel with his new teammates and confirm his good form at the start of the new season.
