Liverpool moved seven points clear after goals from Cody Gakpo, Curtis Jones and Mo Salah gave them a 3-1 comeback win over Leicester
, when Jürgen Klopp’s team demolished Leicester en route to winning the Premier League title with ease. This second occasion ended with another convincing defeat of the Foxes. The rest of the story may also be repeated.
Anfield was shrouded in fog for the night-time fixture but this was an opportunity for Liverpool to put daylight between themselves and Chelsea after a perfect set of results elsewhere. Their prospects appeared healthy on paper against a Leicester team that had been soundly beaten in their previous two outings and had a Premier League debutant in goal.
Salah saw a shot loop off Kristiansen and just over the bar after a poor clearance by Stolarczyk handed possession to Robertson. From the resulting corner, Alexander-Arnold crossed at the second attempt and the Scotland captain’s header struck a post. The Egypt international also struck the woodwork at the end of an incisive counterattack, curling against the bar from 18 yards.
