Liverpool return to winning ways and send Palace bottom

Florian Wirtz scored his first Premier League goal of the season as Liverpool bounced back with a 3-1 victory against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Sunday. The win came after two recent losses to Arsenal and Fenerbahce. Alexis Mac Allister put Liverpool ahead late in the first half, and Wirtz, who hadn't scored a league goal since April, doubled the lead nine minutes into the second half.

Alexander Isak added the third goal in the 89th minute, securing a comfortable win for Liverpool. Eddie Nketiah pulled one back for Palace with a stoppage-time penalty, but the result was enough to move Liverpool up to fourth place in the table, marking their fourth away league win this season. The victory provided much-needed momentum for manager Andoni Iraola, who had faced some awkward questions about Liverpool's inconsistent performances during his first season in charge.

Despite a chance for Palace striker Jorgen Strand Larsen in the 33rd minute and another blocked by Alisson Becker in the 54th minute, the match was ultimately decided by the efforts of Mac Allister, Wirtz, and Isak.
