Liverpool do not seem to have said their last word in the title race. The Reds took advantage of Manchester City’s draw at Southampton to close the gap in the standings with their win over Crystal Palace. van Dijk (8th) and Robertson (32nd) allowed their team to take a comfortable lead before returning to the locker room.
Odsonne Edouard (55th) will close the gap for Palace before Fabinho scores another goal from the penalty spot in the 89th. Final score: 1-3. It will be noted that Christian Benteke went up for the last quarter of an hour.
Aligned during the entire meeting, Albert Sambi Lokonga mightn’t avoid Arsenal’s goalless draw once morest Burnley. Finally, we note the draw between 1-1 between Leicester of Youri Tielemans and the Brighton of Leandro Trossard, both aligned and present during the 90 minutes.
In the standings, Liverpool is second and has 48 points, nine points less than City, which still has an extra game. Arsenal, for its part, remains 6th with 36 units. Brighton are 9th with 30 points while Leicester are 10th with 26 points.
