Liverpool FC is about to win the English championship. The team of coach Arne Slot narrowly prevailed in the Premier League, but earned 1-0 (0-0) at Leicester City. The decisive goal scored Alexander-Arnold in the 76th minute. While the Reds is only missing a victory for the title, Leicester has already relegated after the 23rd season loss.
In a game that dominated the guests over long distances, Liverpool initially left many good chances. Among other things, Mohamed Salah and Diogo Jota only met aluminum within a few seconds before Alexander-Arnold hammered the ball into the goal from an acute angle. According to rumors, the English international is about to move to Real Madrid.
Leicester, who could not stop the downward trend even under coach Ruud van Nistelrooy, rarely came into its own on the offensive, but had chances. A goal from Conor Coady was revoked in the 66th minute due to a foul on the Liverpool keeper Alisson. Facundo Buonanotte missed the equalizer in the 83rd minute and shot past the goal.
FC Liverpool in front of title: Arsenal has to win on Wednesday
Previously, the second place in the table FC Arsenal had prevailed with 4: 0 (2: 0) at promoted Ipswich Town and thus delayed Liverpool’s title win. The gun behind the Gunners is 13 points after 33 games. The Reds could make everything clear next Sunday with a home win against Tottenham Hotspur – or with a draw if Arsenal only plays a draw against Crystal Palace on Wednesday.
If the Londoners lose their home game, Liverpool would be masters without their own intervention. For the table-18. Ipswich, on the other hand, is as good as safe. In the case of five outstanding games, Ipswich has 15 points behind a non-relegation zone and a goal difference of 20 goals than the table-17. West Ham United.
