Liverpool were handed a major boost in their pursuit of the Premier League on Saturday when they returned to the top of the table.
The Reds pulled off a comeback victory against Brighton at Anfield, with goals from Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah sealing the three points for Arne Slot’s side.
Although Liverpool’s first half performance was potentially the worst 45 minutes the side have played under Slot, a much improved second half display ensured that the Reds emerged victorious.
The cherry on the cake for Liverpool supporters came from the other side of the country however, as Bournemouth were able to beat Manchester City 2-1 at the Vitality Stadium on the south coast.
The Cherries’ win means that Liverpool now sit two points clear at the top of the table and will be a huge blow for Manchester City, who suffered two defeats in less than 72 hours.
