Crystal Palace's coach Pierre Sage faced mounting pressure after Liverpool secured a fourth consecutive Premier League win, this time defeating the struggling Eagles in a 3-1 victory at Selhurst Park. Palace currently sit at the bottom of the table, with only seven points from 30 possible, since Sage took over as head coach in the summer.
The hosts started the game on the back foot, but had a moment of relief when Yeremy Pino's close-range effort struck the crossbar. Despite Liverpool's early dominance, they struggled to create many scoring opportunities, resulting in no first-half goals. Palace had chances to level the score before Nketiah's stoppage-time penalty ensured a 3-1 defeat for Crystal Palace, forcing Alisson Becker to make six saves.
The loss leaves Liverpool in fourth place, nine points behind leaders Arsenal, further tightening the race for the top of the Premier League.
