Liverpool allowed the next slip in the race for the Premier League title. The “Reds” had to admit defeat 0-1 in their home game against Burnley on Thursday. The defending champion has not scored a goal in the league for the fourth time in a row and has been waiting five games for total success. Ashley Barnes scored the decisive goal in the 83rd minute with a penalty. Liverpool, fourth in the table, lost connection with the top trio.

For Liverpool it was also the first home defeat in the Premier League since April 2017 or 68 games. Coach Jürgen Klopp’s team was once again unable to provide the necessary penetrating power offensively. The 17th Burnley defended deeply and even hit Barnes in the end.
The forward, once a candidate for the ÖFB team due to his Austrian roots, was previously knocked down by Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson and later recovered safely.
