The controversial Uruguayan striker, facing a double FA charge for on field antics was his usual busy self in today's contest. However, he and the Reds were guilty of being wasteful in front of goal, as QPR held on to a goal deficit thanks to some good goalkeeping by Radek Cerny. The winner finally did come in the 47th minute via a Suarez header.
The game, and particularly the opening 45 minutes, gave a taster of why Kenny Dalglish's side have drawn so often this season and failed to secure more points at Anfield.
Liverpool dominated possession, won 10 corners, and created a reasonable number of chances - but rarely forced Cerny into serious action.
With 15 shots on target (vs. 2 shots by QRP), 57% possession and 17 corner kicks, Liverpool continues their low shots-to-goal conversion rate.
Of course, Radek Cerny was also at his very best (which Goalkeeper isn't these days at Anfield).
Man of the Match - Radek Cerny
