The Reds dropped to second place with 15 points, one less than Arsenal, who had defeated West Ham earlier. Chelsea climbed to sixth place with 11 points. Watch Stephen’s goal. Stephen came on towards the end of the match. The young Chelsea player made an immediate impact, almost scoring a fantastic goal with a placed shot from outside the box, but he was denied by a great save from Mamardashvili, who had replaced the injured Alisson in Liverpool’s goal. However, in stoppage time, no one could stop the boy. At the 49th minute, Stephen took advantage of Cucurella’s cross and tapped it into the empty net. At the final whistle, he couldn’t contain his emotion. On the other hand, João Pedro started the game, but had little impact. He failed to shoot on target at any time. How was the game? Chelsea opened the scoring just 14 minutes into the first half. Moises Caicedo controlled the ball in midfield, got rid of his marker, and unleashed a missile from long range. Mamardashvili managed to touch the ball, but it ended up in the top corner. Liverpool sought the equalizer in the 63rd minute. After a cross into the box, Isak set up Gakpo, who, face to face with the goalkeeper, fired first time to find the back of the net.
