Liverpool and Chelsea provide plenty of fireworks in 2-2 draw

In case you missed it, Liverpool FC and Chelsea FC combined for one of the most thrilling matches this season in the English Premier League. From start to finish, it provided a little bit of everything. Specifically, less than 10 seconds into the match, Sadio Mané drew a yellow card on a reckless challenge. From that point forward, Chelsea was dominated time of possession and seemingly made it seem as if the Reds were in for a long afternoon. However, a struggling Liverpool player finally broke his drought to open up the scoring action.

This ended Mané’s 9 consecutive matches where he was held without a goal. Sadio put Liverpool up 1-0, and his AFCON counterpart quickly followed up with a score of his own.

Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah is a magician.

LFC has seen plenty of incredible feats from their star winger Mohamed Salah. However, what he did against Chelsea on Sunday still has many in awe. A perfect ball from teammate Trent Alexander-Arnold generated this beautiful goal.

Within 25 minutes of action, the Reds’ enjoyed a 2-0 lead at Stamford Bridge over Chelsea. However, the Lions would come storming back. Despite not leading the contest in possession, the Reds made the most of their early opportunities. A strong counterattack and the team’s high pressure gave the acting manager Pepijn Lijnders’ side plenty of chances early. However, a confident CFC goalkeeper and some magic brought their side storming back in the most thunderous of ways before the half came to an end.
