Liverpool suffered a disappointing defeat as they failed to overcome former Manchester United players at Anfield.
Liverpool continues to endure another defeat at Anfield. Despite being favored over Crystal Palace, The Kop suffered a disappointing 0-1 loss.
A day of misfortune for Mohamed Salah and his teammates. Jurgen Klopp’s side managed only 6 out of 21 shots on target, failing to secure at least one point.
Darwin Nunez is one of the victims unable to overcome Dean Henderson, who put on a stellar performance against Liverpool.
In the second half, the ball fell perfectly to Nunez’s feet from a corner kick, giving him the opportunity to volley directly in front of the goal.
Despite the powerful shot, it still couldn’t beat Henderson. The former Manchester United goalkeeper made an impressive reflex save to deny Palace.
Earlier in the first half, the English star left the Anfield crowd lamenting. Luis Diaz penetrated the penalty area to receive a pinpoint cross from Andrew Robertson. Diaz leaped to execute a spectacular volley and unleashed a well-struck shot.
However, that move couldn’t become perfect because Henderson managed to use his left hand to push the ball out of bounds. The 1997-born goalkeeper left Liverpool frustrated with his almost unbelievable save.
Throughout the match, Henderson made six crucial saves, silencing the red-shirted firepower.
The outstanding performance of the former Man Utd star has pushed Liverpool into a difficult position in the title race. Liverpool currently sits in 3rd place with 71 points after 32 matches.
Henderson is regaining his form at Crystal Palace.
