Anfield hurricane does it again! Four minutes of sudden magic destroy Luton

It must be something in that air, or it has to do with the Merseyside club itself, but the fact is only Liverpool are capable of delivering such a magic.Injury-torn Jurgen Klopp’s side seemed deplorable and lost against Luton Town on Wednesday night at Anfield for almost an entire hour before launching a perfect four-minute storm to win in the end, 4-1.Without Salah, Nunez, Alisson, Matip, Alexander-Arnold, Szoboszlai, Thiago, Jones and Jota, the Reds struggled to find a proper ball flow and the back of the net in the first half. On the other hand, the underdogs made the most of the fact their rival lined up a side comprised of almost only reserves and struck early for a shocking lead through Ogbene.Cheidozie Ogbene’s goal to give Luton the lead at Anfield !🤩🇮🇪What a first season this lad is having in the PL☘️ pic.twitter.com/Lx16ovWxBv— Rep of Ireland Player Tracker (@reptracker) February 21, 2024 Luis Diaz and Gakpo, on the other end, were close to scoring on a couple of occasions, but poor finishing prevented them from restoring the stalemate.Coming from the break with a goal deficit inspired the Scousers to push it even harder for the equalizer. Still, Diaz’s misfortune kept returning in the crucial moments, piling more pressure on the table toppers. And then, all of a sudden, tables turned entirely in the span of just four minutes between the 56th and 59th.##NAJAVA_MECA_7892292##Two exquisite Mac Allister’s crosses shifted Liverpool’s game into a different dimension, with Van Dijk and Gakpo capitalizing on those perfect assists.
