Liverpool have reclaimed the top position in the Premier League following a thrilling 2-1 comeback victory over Brighton at Anfield on Saturday.
An early goal by Kadioglu F. put Brighton ahead in the 14th minute, but Liverpool responded with two second-half strikes. Cody Gakpo netted the equalizer in the 69th minute, and Mohamed Salah clinched the victory four minutes later with a clinical finish in the 73rd, securing three vital points for the Reds.
In a setback for Arsenal, they suffered a 1-0 defeat to Newcastle, with Alexander Isak’s 12th-minute goal proving decisive. This loss marks Arsenal’s recent struggle, as they’ve only managed to collect a single point from their last three league matches.
Manchester City also stumbled, falling 2-1 to Bournemouth. Antoine Semenyo gave Bournemouth an early lead in the 9th minute, and Evanilson doubled it shortly after. Josko Gvardiol pulled one back for City in the 82nd minute, but it was too late to change the outcome, causing City to slip in the league standings.
In other Saturday results, Southampton edged Everton with a 1-0 victory, while Nottingham Forest climbed to third place with an emphatic 3-0 win over West Ham, featuring a 78th-minute strike from Super Eagles player Ola Aina.
Meanwhile, Leicester City earned a dramatic 1-1 draw away at Ipswich Town. Ayew J., now playing for Leicester, netted a late equalizer deep into stoppage time (90+3), salvaging a point for his side in a thrilling finish.
With Liverpool back on top, Arsenal and Manchester City will look to regain ground as the title race intensifies.
