(VIDEO) The goal that brings Alexander-Arnold and Liverpool closer to the title and seals Leicester City's relegation
Liverpool are just one win away from clinching their 20th Premier League title. After a 1-0 win over Leicester City, thanks to a goal from Trent Alexander-Arnold, they now only need one more victory from their remaining five games to seal the deal. They could lift the trophy as early as April 27th at Anfield, when they host Tottenham. Meanwhile, Arsenal are still hanging in there after smashing Ipswich Town 4-0, putting the Reds’ party on hold — for now. At the other end of the table, Leicester have officially been relegated after this defeat.
It was a tense and controversial match. Liverpool were the better side overall, creating plenty of chances — including shots that hit the woodwork from Mohamed Salah and Diogo Jota. But they also had a few scares, like a disallowed goal for Leicester after a questionable foul on Alisson, which triggered heavy protests from the whole team and their coach, Ruud van Nistelrooy. In the end, Liverpool’s persistence paid off, with a screamer from Alexander-Arnold fifteen minutes from time — putting Jürgen Klopp’s men on the brink of the title, and leaving Leicester stuck in the drop zone.
