With yesterday’s derby at Stamford Bridge, the 6th fixture in the Premier League is over with Liverpool improving their undefeated streak to 6-0. After this win, Liverpool has extended their advantage over Manchester City by 5 points on the table.
Liverpool opened the score in the 14th minute through Trent Alexander-Arnold, after his shot from outside the box found the back of the net. Shortly after that, Chelsea leveled the score but the goal scored by their captain Cesar Azpilicueta was ruled offside through the VAR system.
After that disallowed goal in the 27th minute, Roberto Firmino increased the lead to 0-2 in the 30th minute. Sadio Mane was fouled just outside the box by Azpilicueta and Andrew Robertson’s free kick found Firmino in the box and he scored past Kepa Arrizabalaga.
With the second half underway, Chelsea put some pressure over Liverpool’s backline and that paid off in the 71st minute, as Ngolo Kante scored to make it 1-2. Frank Lampard’s team tried one final push to earn a point, but Klopp’s players closed their paths to the goal, ending the match with Liverpool taking all 3 points.
