The Liverpool midfielder went through all the emotions this Sunday February 8 in the Premier League. First hero of this match against Manchester City, Dominik Szoboszlai ended the match with a direct red card, at the end of added time.
Terrorizing the goalkeepers from a free kick, which he has made a real specialty of, the Hungarian struck again. Scorer three times in the exercise since the start of the year, including a memorable one at ground level against Marseille in the Champions League, the Hungarian has not lost his touch.
This afternoon at Anfield, he did it again by scoring a direct free kick from more than thirty meters, in a position similar to the goal he scored against Arsenal during the 3rd day of the Premier League. This time, he managed to get around the Citizens’ wall thanks to a Roberto Carlos-style outside right foot, to deceive the former PSG goalkeeper, Gianluigi Donnaruma (74th).
With this goal, the Reds were well on their way to winning, but Pep Guardiola’s players turned everything around in the final minutes. First thanks to an achievement by Bernardo Silva (84th), as a surface fox, then on a penalty transformed by Haaland (90′+ 3).
At the end of added time, Frenchman Rayan Cherki thought he would hit the nail on the head by scoring in the empty goal (90′+10). This was without counting on the intervention of the VAR. During the action, Dominik Soboszlai, in contact with Erling Haaland, was guilty of a nasty shirt clash, synonymous with a red and therefore a canceled goal.
In the end, Manchester City won (2-1) and came within six points of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League.
