Liverpool wins it late!

Liverpool started this match with the knowledge that Chelsea lost earlier on the day. A victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers, would bring the Reds to the top spot in the league for at least a few hours. The perfect motivation to start a football match. Wolverhampton proved to be a tough opponent this season. Only Chelsea and Manchester City conceded less goals this season, while Wolves are equal with Liverpool. In this article we discuss the Premier League game between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Liverpool.

Wolverhampton makes it a fight

Wolverhampton Wanderers isn’t the team that lies down and wait for the opponent to score a couple of goals. Even if they play teams like Manchester City or Liverpool, they go out with the idea to get something out of the match. In this first half against Liverpool, they showed they want to get something. Even though Liverpool was the better team, Wolverhampton never looked in real danger in the first 45 minutes. Both teams went back into the dressing room after a goalless first half.

Liverpool pushing for a goal

In tough games like this, a team like Liverpool needs an early goal. The longer the goal waits, the more confidence the opponents get. Whenever the first goal is in, the opponents need to push forward a bit more which creates space for Liverpool. Wolverhampton tried to keep the ball out of the goal as long as possible. The Wolves managed to keep Liverpool away from the goal, until Diogo Jota passed Sa on the edge of the box. When reaching the goal Jota found Max Kilman on the line. A very poor execution from the Portuguese attacker. It looked this miss was going to cost Liverpool 2 points. When reaching the last minute of extra time, Mohamed Salah found Divock Origi in the box and the Belgium striker converted the ball from Salah into an assist. 0-1 in the last second of the game, a great result for the Reds in their titlerace.
