Crystal Palace snatch it at the death, end Liverpool’s unbeaten run | OneFootball

The Reds fell 2-1 as visitors and gave up their first points in the Premier League.

The Liverpool, current champion of England, suffered its first defeat of the season in the Premier League by falling 2-1 against Crystal Palace this Saturday, on the sixth matchday, in a game that was decided in the last seconds.

The Eagles quickly took the lead with a goal from Ismaila Sarr at the 9th minute. Liverpool managed to equalize towards the end with a goal from the Italian Federico Chiesa at the 87th minute, but just when everything seemed destined for a draw, Eddie Nketiah scored in the 90+7 and gave the agonizing victory to the team from Selhurst Park.

With this victory, Crystal Palace, champion of the last FA Cup, is provisionally second with 12 points, only three behind Liverpool, which it had already previously upset in the Community Shield by winning on penalties. Despite the loss, Jürgen Klopp's team maintains the lead thanks to the advantage accumulated with five victories in five previous dates.

The slip of the leader favored other teams. Bournemouth is third with 11 points after drawing 2-2 with Leeds, while Manchester City took full advantage and crushed Burnley 5-1. In that match, Erling Haaland shone with a brace, although the Frenchman Maxime Estève scored two own goals for the visitor.
