A club statement Saturday morning revealed that after "thorough" investigations following the match, the 22-year-old will be available for selection at Anfield.

Kovac, who admitted that Coman had given "a different dimension" to his team, admitted that too many of his players had perhaps had the Liverpool game in their head while they conceded the first goal after only 14 seconds.

"We had a hard time getting into the game," added Kovac on his club's official website. "I do not remember having conceded a goal so early and it was very annoying.

"It was clearer in the second half." Overall, it was a win as a workman, but she deserved it – some of us may have thought of Liverpool. It's not good, but it's human. "
