Liverpool took the lead in the Premier League by winning against Burnley (0-2), thanks to Darwin Nuñez and Diogo Jota, on Tuesday, two days before Arsenal’s match against West Ham.

Thanks to a well-placed strike from Darwin Nuñez (6th) and a goal from Diogo Jota on a counter-attack at the end of the match (90th), Liverpool left Burnley (0-2) with a precious victory on Tuesday evening during the Boxing Day. The Reds take the lead in the Premier League with two points more than Arsenal, who host West Ham on Thursday as part of this 17th day.

Darwin Nuñez had not scored with LFC since September 1 in the EFL Cup, that is to say 12 matches in all competitions! His fifth league goal. This will do good for a generous but much too clumsy Uruguayan striker. Jota made his return after missing eight matches.

Mohamed Salah failed to score against an excellent James Trafford, the young goalkeeper for the penultimate Clarets. Newcastle reception next Monday for the Anfield residents!
