The visitors did their best to make the most of it, as Will Smallbone took advantage of a miscommunication between Virgil van Dijk and Alisson to score from a tight angle in the dying seconds of the first half.It’s been 175 days since Liverpool last lost a Premier League match 💪 pic.twitter.com/TBInwQYdhy— Premier League (@premierleague) March 8, 2025 However, the Reds made a triple substitution at half-time, and things improved for Liverpool almost instantly. Darwin Nunez continued with his somewhat surprising streak, levelling the score before being fouled by Smallbone for a penalty. Mohamed Salah netted, of course, for a total comeback, later adding one more from the spot for a brace and 3-1.Liverpool’s attention now shifts to the crucial return leg against PSG at Anfield on Tuesday night.PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 28SaturdayNott.
