Liverpool is still resolute in the pursuit of leaders Chelsea. On the eve of hosting Porto – the meeting of the fifth round of the Champions League group stage next Wednesday – Jurgen Klopp’s team led Arsenal, with a score of 4-0, in the 12th round match of the English Premier League. .
At Anfield, the display was poor in the first half of the hour, and there was no record of any chance: the most notable was the feud between Jurgen Klopp and Mikel Arteta, with the referee interrupting the match to show the coaches yellow. So it was… even red Woke up with a shot from Thiago Alcantara: Mane followed him but scored a perfect goal, heading for the first goal in the afternoon (39 minutes), after a free kick by Alexander-Arnold.
In the second part, the attacking storm of the House’s men intensifies, with Ramsdale asserting himself as the main character of the House. Arsenal: The goalkeeper coached by Mikel Arteta prevented a scandalous defeat.
Despite Ramsdale’s inspiration, there were many times Liverpool arrived with danger in the opposite area, and they had to score again. Diogo Jota Nuno thanked Tavares for a cross pass from behind, Ben White hit the field and hit the net (52′).
It would be impossible for Salah to remain empty: the Egyptian only had to stop (73 minutes), in a move that also involved Diogo Jota and Salah. The accounts were closed by Minamino (77 minutes), in the Japanese’s first touch on the ball, after jumping off the bench.
In this way, Liverpool temporarily climbed to second place in the English Premier League with 25 points, four points less than Chelsea. Arsenal sees that his good series has stopped and keeps the 20 points, in fifth place.
