Liverpool snatch late draw with Newcastle as Iraola era begins
As the Premier League ushered in new eras with Manchester City's Enzo Maresca securing a 2-1 victory over Bournemouth and Liverpool's Andoni Iraola earning a 2-2 draw against Newcastle, it became clear that both managers faced mixed beginnings to their respective reigns. Maresca's side mounted a remarkable comeback, with Rayan Cherki's assists fueling two goals from Marc Guehi and Josko Gvardiol in stoppage time.
Iraola, making his debut as Liverpool's manager, escaped with a point after Dominik Szoboszlai scored a crucial penalty in the 95th minute to stave off defeat. Despite the victories, both managers acknowledged their teams' inconsistent displays, emphasizing the need for improvement moving forward.
