Unbeaten in the league since 21 games and his only defeat this season against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League, Liverpool suffered, once again, on the lawn of Aston Villa. Less imperial in recent weeks, the Mersey club had however opened the brand, by the essential Mohamed Salah, author of his 24th goal of the championship season. But the men of Unai Emery struck twice before the break, by Tielemans then Watkins to take the lead.
But Liverpool reacted again, and was able to equalize thanks to Trent Alexander-Arnold. The Reds then accentuated the pressure on the goals of Emiliano Martinez, vigilant in front of Darwin Nunez in particular. Except that Aston Villa was also threatening, in a crazy end of the match, with a goal refused for offside. Final score 2-2, which offers 8 points ahead of Liverpool on his Dauphin Arsenal.
