Jürgen Klopp and Liverpool FC were surprisingly wrong in the Premier League. The English soccer champions arrived on Sunday in front of 2000 spectators at Anfield Road against the penultimate of the table West Bromwich Albion just 1: 1 (1: 0). With 32 points, the Reds remain in the lead, three points ahead of Everton FC. At the end of the year, Liverpool will visit Newcastle United on Wednesday (9 pm Sky).
Sadio Mané gave former Schalke Joel Matip an early lead in the 12th minute for the defending champion, who was superior from the start. The Klopp-Elf failed to make an early decision despite nearly 80 percent possession and a multitude of possibilities. “It was our fault. You earned the point because we didn’t finish the game, ”Klopp said.
Liverpool is amazing
In the final phase, the teacher suddenly began to reel and the outsider with new coach Sam Allardyce became more brash. First, Karlan Grant failed in the 72nd minute to Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker. Ten minutes later, the Brazilian had no chance: after a corner kick, a header from Semi Ajayi went from the inside post to the goal. Roberto Firmino headed the winning goal just before the end, while West Brom goalkeeper Sam Johnstone directed the ball around the post.
More bitter news for Klopp, who also received a yellow card for complaining: central defender Matip had to be substituted after almost 60 minutes with a groin injury. Especially in the middle of defense there are few alternatives after the long-term failures of Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez.
Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur and starting manager José Mourinho are no longer able to win. The Londoners arrived at Wolverhampton Wanderers just 1-1 (1-0) on Sunday night and have been expecting success for four games. With 26 points, England national soccer player Harry Kane’s club is only fifth. Wolverhampton (21) remains eleventh. Tanguy Ndombele gave Tottenham the lead in 57 seconds, Romain Saïss drew 1-1 in 86 minutes.
