December 6th, 2023, 11:20 p.m
Liverpool FC are playing at the bottom of the Premier League. This means: A win is an absolute must if you don’t want to lose ground in the title race. This works, but with problems. Competitor Manchester City is surprisingly giving up.
Thanks to a work victory, Liverpool FC has consolidated its second place in the Premier League behind Arsenal FC. Team manager Jürgen Klopp’s team won 2-0 (1-0) once morest bottom team Sheffield United. Meanwhile, Manchester City slipped deeper into the crisis and lost ground in the championship race.
Klopp and his team had to deal with a new man on the sidelines. After a catastrophic start to the season, the promoted team fired team manager Paul Heckingbottom and brought back club legend Chris Wilder (56). But the hoped-for effect evaporated – Liverpool dominated the game for long stretches despite defensive problems and missed several chances. Captain Virgil van Dijk (37th) headed with a header and Dominik Szoboszlai (90th + 4) scored for the Reds, who remain two points behind Arsenal FC.
However, the defending champion surprisingly lost ground in the title fight. After three league draws in a row, Manchester City lost 0-1 (0-0) following a disappointing performance at Aston Villa, is now six points behind Arsenal and had to give up third place in the table to their opponents. Former Leverkusen player Leon Bailey (74th) scored the goal of the evening for the surprise team from Birmingham with a deflected shot.
In the duel between the disappointed midfield teams between Manchester United and Chelsea FC, the home team deservedly won 2:1 (1:1) despite usurping their chances. Scott McTominay (19th/69th) scored twice for United – Cole Palmer’s goal (45th) was not enough for the overwhelmed Londoners. Meanwhile, Pascal Groß scored a goal in Brighton & Hove Albion’s 2-1 (1-1) win once morest Brentford FC. The four-time national player quickly equalized Bryan Mbeumo’s penalty goal (27th) in the 31st minute. In the second half, right-back Jack Hinshelwood (52nd) scored the winning goal for the seventh win of the season.
One thing was clear: Fulham FC beat Nottingham Forest 5-0. The team around keeper Bernd Leno celebrated double packs from Raul Jimenez (34th/54th) and Alex Iwobi (30th/73rd) as well as the goal from Tom Cairney (86th).
