“The last one is good, all good is yours.” But the end of 2020 for champion Liverpool did not go well. The All Reds ended the year with a goalless draw against Newcastle.
Despite losing points, Jürgen Klopp’s team did not lose first place. The reigning champions are three points ahead of second-placed Manchester United.
In their previous game against West Bromwich Albion, the All-Reds shared the points with a 1-1 draw in the last minute. This time Liverpool shared points in two consecutive games with a goalless draw against Newcastle. Liverpool tied after five consecutive league wins against Newcastle.
In the last game of the year, the club’s team suffered greatly to keep the ball in possession. But they couldn’t catch the crack in Newcastle’s icy barrier. Newcastle made a great attack in the 13th minute of the game in reverse. Fabinio blocked Callum Wilson’s shot from inside the area with the ball from the left side.
He was saved on the trip and the All Reds started to play better. In the 34th minute of the game, Mohammad Salah seized control of Jordan Henderson’s cross D box and fired with his left foot. However, his shot was blocked by Newcastle goalkeeper Carl Darlow. In the extension of the first half, Roberto Firmino jumped headlong and stopped Darlow.
In the 54th minute of the game, Saadio jumped down the right side of a Trent Alexander Arnold cross and hit his head. However, his head seemed to lose the side of the net. In the 7th minute, Salah got the ball extended by Firmino and sent the ball in with a strong shot. Then Firmino did not score again when he touched his head from the corner.
Attack after attack in the second half kept Newcastle’s defense busy, but failed to break through at the end. And that’s why the match ended in a goalless draw.
In this tie, Liverpool is in the lead with 9 wins from 18 matches and 33 points from 6 draws. Newcastle United is 14th with 19 points after playing one game less. Manchester United is at two with 30 points from 15 games. Leicester City is at number three with 29 points from 16 games and Everton has four games with one equal.
