This is when Robbie Brady scores an amazing goal from 40 yards away in Preston's 1-0 victory against Liverpool.
Arne Slot experienced a loss in his debut match as manager when the Reds players played a private friendly match at the AXA Training Centre.
The man from the Netherlands signed a contract to work at Anfield for three years, coming from Feyenoord to take over from Jurgen Klopp. He began his job as head coach on June 1.
However, he must have been upset when he witnessed former Burnley winger Brady cheekily score over the goalkeeper with a daring shot.
The soccer player from Republic of Ireland took the ball from the opposing team unexpectedly at the 30-minute mark while Liverpool was trying to build an attack from their own half.
Liverpool lost their game on Friday with their new manager Arne Slot in charge for the first time.
Afterwards, he swiftly shot a precise long-distance shot that soared over Vitezslav Jaros and bounced off the post into the goal.
Slot played with a total of 25 players during the entire 90-minute match, some of whom were regular first team players.
Curtis Jones, Harvey Elliott, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Mohamed Salah were some of the players who featured in the first period of the game.
During the first half of the game, Salah came very close to scoring for Liverpool when he hit the crossbar from within the penalty area following a pass from Konstantinos Tsimikas.
Slot made changes during the second half, substituting in mostly young players who played alongside veterans like Wataru Endo and Stefan Bajcetic.
Even though this was Liverpool's initial pre-season game, Preston has already played three friendly matches this summer after completing a full pre-season training session in Spain.
The Lilywhites emerged victorious with a single goal advantage over their opponents at the AXA Training Centre.
During the 90-minute match, Slot played with a total of 25 players, some of whom were key members of the first team.
Harvey Elliott (middle) was one of the players who appeared in the first half of the game.
Both teams will have focused on being physically ready for the upcoming match, as the Lilywhites are scheduled to start their season against Sheffield United on August 9th.
Liverpool's first pre-season game on TV will be on July 27 against Real Betis during their tour in the United States.
Liverpool will also face off against fellow Premier League teams Arsenal and Manchester United during the tour.
