Chelsea lose at home
Liverpool FC have won their fifth win in a row in the Premier League. Coach Jürgen Klopp’s team beat West Ham United 3-1 (1-1) on Sunday. Arsenal FC, for whom Kai Havertz only came on as a substitute in the second half, only managed a 2-2 (1-1) draw in the north London derby against arch-rivals Tottenham Hotspur despite leading twice. Havertz’s former club FC Chelsea lost again at home.
Liverpool took the lead in front of their own crowd at Anfield Stadium with a penalty from Mohamed Salah (16th minute). The Egyptian had previously been fouled in the penalty area. Shortly before half-time, Jarrod Bowen (42′) scored to equalize for the guests led by DFB professional Thilo Kehrer. But Darwin Núñez (60th) and Diogo Jota (84th) made the Reds celebrate with former Leipzig player Dominik Szoboszlai in the starting line-up. Liverpool moved up to second place in the table. Manchester City are leaders after six wins in six games.
The two local rivals, who were tied on points, had an entertaining exchange of blows with runner-up Arsenal and Harry Kane’s former club Tottenham. An own goal from “Spurs” professional Cristian Romero (26th), who deflected a shot from Bukayo Saka, and a direct goal from Saka (54th) put the “Gunners” in the lead twice. But the Spurs, who started strongly under new coach Ange Postecoglou, equalized through Heung-Min Son (42nd/55th), who scored 149 and 150 in the Tottenham jersey.
Chelsea’s season continues to be disappointing under new coach Mauricio Pochettino. The Blues, who have only won one game so far, conceded a 0-1 (0-0) draw against Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge. It was the third defeat in the sixth game for Pochettino’s team. Ollie Watkins (73′) scored for the guests from Birmingham.
