Liverpool back on track after beating Palace
LONDON: Florian Wirtz bagged his first Premier League goal this season as Liverpool got back on track with a 3-1 win against lowly Crystal Palace on Sunday.
Liverpool secured a 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace on Sunday, returning to form in the Premier League. Florian Wirtz opened the scoring for Liverpool in the second half, capitalizing on a free-kick. Alexis Mac Allister gave Liverpool the lead in the 40th minute with a header from a Dominik Szoboszlai free-kick. Alexander Isak added a third goal in the 89th minute, sealing the win for Liverpool.
Eddie Nketiah scored a late penalty for Palace, but it was not enough to overturn the result. This win marked Liverpool's fourth away league success this season, showcasing their strength away from home. Andoni Iraola, the Liverpool manager, expressed satisfaction with the team's performance, acknowledging there is still room for improvement.
Palace's Jorgen Strand Larsen came close to scoring for his side early in the game, only to be denied by the offside flag and VAR. Despite their best efforts, Palace failed to find the net, with Eddie Nketiah's stoppage-time goal failing to change the outcome.
