Liverpool have started the new year excellently. It won 4-2 against Newcastle and will therefore remain leader in the Premier League for a while. The visitors only buckled in the final quarter. An unlikely shot from Alexander-Arnold hit the crossbar. The goal of the year was almost already scored on January 1.
A closed first half between Liverpool and Newcastle. Both clubs each saw a goal canceled and Mohamed Salah missed a penalty. Botman made a mistake and gave away a penalty. Martin Dubravka turned and the rebound was fired wildly over by Trent Alexander-Arnold.
However, he has a kicking technique that is impressive. In the 39th minute he shot at goal from an impossible position, but his shot hit the crossbar. The goal of the year had almost already been scored.

In the second half it became a goal celebration. Salah opened the scoring. He finished a beautiful attack perfectly. Alexander Isak then knocked Van Dijk in the back to make it 1-1 and Curtis Jones’ goal (3-1) was also impressive.

Then it was the Dutch’s turn. Gakpo, who had just come on, was released by a wonderful ball from the outside of Salah’s foot and he scored to make it 4-1. Botman then headed in the second Newcastle goal from a corner. In the final phase, Diogo Jota seemed to drop, but referee Anthony Taylor still gave a penalty. Salah again got behind it and now he hit the target.
