Liverpool faced their third consecutive defeat, losing by three goals or more in each match. This marks the first time since 1953 that the team has lost three matches in a row by this margin. In the Champions League, they suffered a 4-1 loss against PSV at home in Anfield. Fans were seen leaving the stadium before the match ended. Liverpool fell behind early in the sixth minute due to a penalty awarded for a handball by Van Dijk, converted by Ivan Perisic, giving PSV the lead. However, Liverpool equalized within ten minutes through Dominik Szoboszlai.
The second half brought more disappointment for Liverpool. They attempted 27 shots, but none broke through PSV’s defense. In the 56th minute, a great finish from Gus following a pass by Mauro Junior put PSV up by two goals. Substitute Chuba Akpom expanded the margin, scoring just three minutes after coming on in the 73rd minute. He added a third goal again in the 91st minute from a pass by Dust, sealing Liverpool’s defeat. This loss puts additional pressure on Liverpool’s coach, Arne Slot. Currently, Liverpool is in 13th place in the Champions League table, while PSV sits in 15th.
