Tottenham 1-0 Liverpool
Has Liverpool lost a truck like Manchester City? Liverpool did not play well in the last two matches. Manchester United was not in good form. Even then, Liverpool failed to win the Premier League home match. The match was drawn 2-2.
The semi-final of the EFL Cup was quite important for Liverpool. The opponent was Tottenham, a renowned team. This is true. However, in the last few matches, we have seen Tottenham's weak and irregular performance. I expected Liverpool to win this match. However, Tottenham won the match by a margin of 1-0. Liverpool's players played well. They created many attacking opportunities. But the attacking players completely failed to break Tottenham's defense. As a result, despite 7 on target shots, Liverpool's players could not score a single goal.
This is how teams start getting bad in their performance, Liverpool ending their match in draw with manchester United wasn't good, we are talking about a team that's mainly the outstanding among all the EPL team presently that we can say they may be crowned the league title at the end of the season but with the few matches they have had so far I think something is actually wrong which needed to be rectified very fast to avoid reocurence, in the two recent match of Liverpool I lost some bets though no worries but the major thing is that Liverpool really need to up their games, there encounter with Tottenham in the EFL Cup, they made attempt to score goal, yea tere was about 7shots on goal in there favour but that's not really the issue, converting those opportunities to goal is where the problem lies and it wasn't possible for them in that match.
Liverpool finally felt what defeat is, but hey this is only Leg 1 and there is still 1 more match that Tottenham cannot be proud of. A 1 goal difference is not difficult if Liverpool plays better in Leg 2. This match also took a victim because I was sad to see Bentancur suddenly fall. All the players were shocked because there was no contact with anyone when Bentancur headed the ball.
