Liverpool secured a 1-0 victory against Burnley in the Premier League match held at Turf Moor. Mohamed Salah scored the decisive goal from a penalty awarded during injury time. This win means Liverpool has achieved four victories from four matches this season, maintaining a 100% record.
Throughout the match, Burnley focused on defense. Although Liverpool had 78.3% ball possession and recorded 10 shots to Burnley’s 2 in the first half, they were unable to find the net due to Burnley’s solid defense and goalkeeper Martin Dubravka.
In the second half, Liverpool continued to press. Federico Chiesa’s header narrowly missed the target, while Burnley’s defense remained tight. In the 84th minute, Burnley’s Leslie Ugwu was sent off after receiving a second yellow card for fouling Florian Wirtz, leaving Burnley with 10 players.
