Liverpool players will begin returning to pre-season training in just 20 days, but many of the Reds' stars are currently representing their country in various matches around the world.
Many international matches have taken place over the past two days and many more will follow, with the possibility of a second Trent Alexander-Arnold appearance in midfield when England take on North Macedonia at Old Trafford in Monday. It remains to be seen whether this turns out to be a permanent fixture for club or country, but it at least makes for an interesting follow-up as Gareth Southgate experimentes with the Liverpool player.
Today Virgil van Dijk and Cody Gakpo compete in the UEFA Nations League for the Netherlands, while several others compete for a place in next summer's European Championship in Germany.
We looked at how Luis Díaz and Ibrahima Konaté got along earlier in the week, and you can read that recap by clicking here. And here are the latest details on how well Liverpool's players get along while serving their international teams.
Gakpo won some good positions in the second half but failed to score, but had plenty of goals. Italy took the lead twice as Steven Bergwijn withdrew once; Federico Chiesa and Gini Wijnaldum then scored rather late.

Nothing was really decisive in this match but the Netherlands still wanted to win. Gakpo and Van Dijk will have better games but nothing to worry about - they can now rest for pre-season with no more games in the Netherlands until September.

Andy Robertson has commanded the team and played the full 90 minutes as Scotland have now won three of three games. They might even have a leg in next summer's draw.

Scotland finished bottom of the table at the last European Championship and it would be great if Robertson had one more chance to take it a step further and qualify for the knockout stages if he leads his team to a tournament. other.
Diogo Jota (Portugal)
Bernardo Silva and a Bruno Fernandes brace helped Portugal beat Bosnia and Herzegovina, when Diogo Jota replaced Fulham midfielder João Palhinha 2-0, with three minutes remaining.
Jota had a few chances even in his short time on the pitch but he failed to convert. That doesn't matter, although Cristiano Ronaldo appeared frustrated at not being able to add another goal to his assist list, he spread his arms in his usual shameless manner to show off. displeasure.
Victory maintains Portugal's 100% qualifying record to date (after three wins) and means they are headed for the next major international tournament.
