Premier League 25/26 Matchday 15 - Leeds United 3:3 Liverpool Match Report

Match Report

Liverpool played out a 3-3 draw with Leeds United in the Premier League on Saturday evening at Elland Road.

The Reds had taken a two-goal advantage early in the second half thanks to a swift double strike from forward Hugo Ekitike.

Leeds, however, found a way back into the contest via a Dominic Calvert-Lewin penalty and goal from Anton Stach.

Szoboszlai, though, put the Reds back ahead in the 80th minute, before a leveller in added time for the hosts by substitute Ao Tanaka saw the points shared.

Team

Liverpool made four changes to their line-up for the trip to West Yorkshire with Conor Bradley returning from injury.

Milos Kerkez, Curtis Jones and Ekitike were also restored to the starting XI by Arne Slot.

First half

The game started at pace with Leeds working Noah Okafor and Gabriel Gudmundsson into efforts that both flew wide of the mark.

Kerkez also tried his luck from distance in response for the Reds, however the full-back's opportunity suffered the same fate as those before.

After 15 minutes Liverpool enjoyed their best spell of the game, a Curtis Jones strike smashing the crossbar from the edge of the box, with the midfielder opening up the chance well for himself as he cut onto his right foot.

Ekitike's driven shot, meanwhile, deflected over with Liverpool dominating much of the possession and openings.

Szoboszlai then attempted to dip a free kick over the Leeds wall and into the back of net, though his chance also flew inches over the bar.

The midfielder turned provider at a dead ball a short while later, swinging in a delivery for the head of Virgil van Dijk, but the captain's opening was just off target.

Ahead of the interval, Pascal Struijk prodded a chance wide following a corner ball, while Cody Gakpo broke quickly to have his shot deflected away, with the score remaining level at the break.

Second half

Liverpool began in swift fashion after the change of ends and took control of the game with two quick goals.

Ekitike struck twice in a little over two minutes to give the Reds a cushion by minute 50 of the contest.

The striker first picked up a loose pass from Joe Rodon in the Leeds defence and advanced forward to strike low into the bottom corner of the net.

On Liverpool's next attack he again added to the scoreline, having seen an initial penalty claim waved away by referee Anthony Taylor after a sliding challenge in the box.

The Reds recycled the ball quickly out wide as Bradley delivered a dipping cross for the forward to greet with a volley ahead of diving goalkeeper Lucas Perri.

The Whites stopper also had to be alert shortly after the hour to halt a curling Gakpo shot during a fast break for Liverpool.

Leeds, however, pulled themselves back into the game with two goals in two minutes themselves after earning a penalty kick.

Ibrahima Konate was adjudged to have taken down substitute Willy Gnonto after VAR intervention in the 73rd minute, with Calvert-Lewin scoring from the spot.

Stach then levelled the contest with a driven effort from inside the area after working space from the left to net past Alisson.

The match opened up with both teams exchanging attacks in their attempts to find a winner.

Perri pushed a Van Dijk header wide from a set-piece with a strong save to his right, before the Reds found their way back in front with 10 minutes remaining.

A clever move saw a pass from Ryan Gravenberch open up space for Szoboszlai, who had advanced deep into the final third.

The midfielder gathered and made no mistake by sliding a shot into the far corner to restore Liverpool's lead.

Substitute Tanaka, though, had the final say of the night in the sixth minute of added time at the end of the contest, striking into the net at a corner ball to see the game end level.

Premier League 25/26 Matchday 14 - Liverpool 1:1 Sunderland Match Report

Match Report

Liverpool were held to a 1-1 draw by Sunderland at Anfield in the Premier League on Wednesday evening.

After both teams had struck the woodwork – the visitors doing so on two occasions – it was the away side who opened the scoring on 67 minutes when Chemsdine Talbi’s shot from distance took a deflection off Virgil van Dijk.

However, Florian Wirtz’s deflected effort levelled late on when he created space inside the area and struck left-footed against Nordi Mukiele.

Team

Arne Slot elected to make just one change to the starting line-up from the weekend victory at West Ham United, with Andy Robertson coming in for Milos Kerkez.

First half

On a cold night at Anfield, a Dominik Szoboszlai drive from distance early on warmed the palms of Robin Roefs, but Sunderland started brightly at Anfield.

Nevertheless, Alisson Becker remained largely untroubled in the early exchanges – and on 23 minutes, Liverpool went agonisingly close to breaking the deadlock.

Wirtz got the bounce of the ball on the edge of the box, allowing him to bound his way into a one-on-one with Roefs. The No.7 nudged the ball towards goal, but the visiting ‘keeper got a boot to it to deflect it against the attacker and into the side netting.

By this point, the Reds’ threat was growing, though Omar Alderete did force Alisson into two routine saves.

Then, with 32 minutes elapsed, Trai Hume’s well-struck effort from 20 yards was required to be touched onto the crossbar by the hosts’ No.1.

At the other end, as half-time loomed, Szoboszlai’s shift-and-strike from the left needed to be punched over the bar by Roefs.

The subsequent corner saw Sunderland half-clear the ball, but Liverpool recycled it back into the box via Joe Gomez and a downward header towards the bottom corner by Alexis Mac Allister struck the outside of the post.

Second half

Mohamed Salah was introduced into the action during the break, replacing Cody Gakpo – and Liverpool started with intent.

Salah and Wirtz both had attempts into crowded boxes blocked by blue shirts, with Roefs not truly tested in the early exchanges.

Then, just after the hour, a near-post header from Alderete crashed against the outside of the post and behind as Sunderland demonstrated their threat once more.

And with 67 minutes on the clock, it was The Black Cats who opened the scoring. Talbi collected possession around 20 yards out and took aim, with the effort beating Alisson via the aid of a deflection off Van Dijk.

However, Liverpool levelled with eight minutes of normal time remaining.

It was a goal that owed much to the tenacity of Curtis Jones – an earlier substitute for Gomez – who stepped up to win possession and find Wirtz inside the box.

The No.7 then created space by shifting the ball onto his left foot before lifting a finish into the top corner via a deflection 15 yards out.

The home team piled on the pressure in search of a winner – but in a dramatic finale, Wilson Isidor rounded Alisson only have his strike towards the empty net blocked on the line by Federico Chiesa.
