Alisson has become the most expensive goalkeeper in history after Liverpool paid Roma £65million to land Brazil's No 1. This is a huge statement of intent from Liverpool and takes their spending for this window to £174.45million on the back of deals for Guinea midfielder Naby Keita, Brazil international Fabinho and Switzerland forward Xherdan Shaqiri. Alisson arrived on Merseyside on Wednesday and underwent a medical at Liverpool's Melwood training base.
BLACKBURN 0-2 LIVERPOOL - DOMINIC KING AT EWOOD PARK: Pre-season, in Jurgen Klopp’s world, is all about players taking chance and giving him decisions to make. This, Liverpool’s manager believes, is the point for his squad to make their point. With that in mind, Liverpool’s manager will have left Ewood Park digesting a positive problem. Daniel Sturridge’s future, as always, is the subject of great scrutiny, but he showed, perhaps, that he might yet have another 12 months left at Anfield.
DEREK LAWRENSON AT CARNOUSTIE: McIlroy took the high road with his driver and earned the good fortune his gutsy strategy deserved. Woods took the low with his ‘stinger’ iron shots.

The elite of European football are jetting off far and wide for their pre-season preparations in the coming weeks. And the International Champions Cup is the competition they all want to play in.
Chelsea have arrived in Australia ahead of their first pre-season friendly against Perth Glory on July 23. New manager Maurizio Sarri was pictured disembarking with a number of his first team squad in tow. The Blues landed on Thursday night (local time) after their long and energy-sapping journey but were afforded a warm reception.

RIATH AL-SAMARRAI AT CARNOUSTIE: He said he will take his driver on another bomb run on Friday but maybe it would be a sensible idea if Rory McIlroy took it to a cobwebbed corner of the garage instead. He won’t, of course. He’s not that sort — too adventurous, too thrillingly bold, too committed to his plan. And which golf fan doesn’t love him for it? But after the challenges he made for himself on Thursday, you would understand if there was at least some temptation for an easier life. Pulls, hooks — call them what you want, the Northern Irishman went through the whole repertoire of misplaced tee shots in his first round. Repeatedly he found himself wading through the rough stuff down the left of the fairways, waist deep at times, far beyond the ropes at others.
LAURIE WHITWELL AT CARNOUSTIE: The World Cup is done, but one Southgate is still in contention for a trophy this summer.

DEREK LAWRENSON AT CARNOUSTIE: McIlroy countered: ‘I like Butch a lot but I would definitely say I’m on the opposite end of the spectrum to someone who’s mechanical.'
MIKE DICKSON AT CARNOUSTIE: We might tend to think of Justin Rose as the anti-Colin Montgomerie, all English calm and reserve. Yet he showed that he is also in touch with his inner Monty.
Rain is forecast throughout Friday morning, with McIlroy due to begin his second round at 7:52am alongside Marc Leishman and Thorbjorn Olesen. Woods is due out at 10:20am, meanwhile.
DEREK LAWRENSON AT CARNOUSTIE: It is a heck of a thing to be accused of cheating by a fellow pro — and to be playing in the Open on the strength of being given the benefit of the doubt by an official.
After an emotionally draining World Cup, most England players are out for a bit of relaxation ahead of the new Premier League season. That wasn't quite the case for Jordan Pickford on Thursday however as he took on the stress of showing off his golfing technique live to the entire nation. Taking in the first day of The Open at Carnoustie, the Everton goalkeeper was enjoying the action in the Scottish sun before he was accosted by Sky Sports producers.
Daly was not able to compete this week due to a knee injury — but when this pair of patriotic trousers were spotted in the crowd we thought Long John had come to watch.
The Open returns to Carnoustie for the first time since 2007 and while the likes of Padraig Harrington and Paul Lawrie have happy memories of the Angus track, it has given more than a few players nightmares over the years.
Rather than take a penalty drop, Vegas got into the stream to hit his ball, which was resting on silt. He left his trousers rolled down and got the ball out first time but was unlucky to find a bunker.

Video footage has emerged of the inspirational team talk Paul Pogba gave to his France team-mates ahead of the World Cup final. With the expectations of a nation resting on their shoulders, they may have not needed any extra motivation for the final with Croatia - but that didn't stop Pogba stepping up and trying to provide it. The 25-year-old told his fellow Les Blues stars they were '90 minutes away from entering the history books' and becoming just the second France side to lift the prestigious prize.
