​Alexander-Arnold’s late strike seals Liverpool victory and confirms Leicester’s relegation

Liverpool edged past Leicester City with a narrow 1-0 victory, courtesy of a 76th-minute goal from substitute Trent Alexander-Arnold.

This result not only brings Liverpool within touching distance of the league title but also confirms Leicester’s relegation to the Championship.

The match remained goalless for much of the duration, with both teams creating opportunities but failing to convert.

Liverpool’s persistence paid off when Alexander-Arnold, returning from injury, found the net in the 76th minute, breaking the deadlock and securing the win for the Reds.

This victory propels Liverpool to 79 points from 33 matches, maintaining a 13-point lead over second-placed Arsenal, who have a game in hand.

The Reds now require just one more win to clinch their second Premier League title and 20th league title overall.

Conversely, the defeat seals Leicester City’s fate, confirming their relegation after a challenging season. The Foxes have become the first team in top-flight history to go nine consecutive home games without scoring, highlighting their struggles throughout the campaign.
