In a closely contested match at Anfield today, Liverpool secured a 2-1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers, restoring their seven-point cushion at the top of the Premier League table.
The Reds took the lead in the 16th minute when Luis Díaz capitalized on a defensive error by Toti, slotting the ball past goalkeeper José Sá.
Liverpool doubled their advantage in the 37th minute after Díaz was fouled by Sá, resulting in a penalty that Mohamed Salah confidently converted, marking his 23rd league goal of the season.
Wolves responded in the second half, with Matheus Cunha delivering a stunning 25-yard strike in the 67th minute to reduce the deficit. Despite a spirited effort from the visitors, Liverpool managed to hold on to their lead, securing all three points.
This victory brings Liverpool’s point tally to 60, maintaining their position ahead of second-placed Arsenal, who sit on 53 points. Wolves remain in 17th place, just two points above the relegation zone.
Liverpool’s next fixture sees them hosting Aston Villa at Anfield, while Wolves will look to bounce back in their upcoming match against Tottenham Hotspur.
