Continuation of the 12th day of the Premier League with Liverpool traveling to Southampton. The opportunity for the Reds to take off at the top of the standings, especially with the new poor performance of Manchester City (0-4). It started well with Dominik Szoboszlai’s opening goal after half an hour of play. But after a surprising let-up, Liverpool conceded two goals.

Before the break, it was Adam Armstrong who equalized. The latter found himself decisive passer for Mateus Fernandes and the 2-1 goal. Enough to sink the Reds? Not really. In-form man Mohamed Salah scored twice to give his team victory. The Egyptian notably converted a penalty in the final minutes. With these three new points, Liverpool already have 31 points in the Premier League standings, eight more than Manchester City. THE Reds will also receive the Cityzensnext Sunday, at Anfield, in a clash that promises to be thrilling.
