Liverpool vs Southampton 2022: Liverpool returns to the Premier League against Southampton at St Mary’s.
Liverpool vs Southampton 2022: The race to win the Premier League has come to an end. It is noteworthy that Liverpool still has an unprecedented quadruple.
An exhausted and injured after winning the FA Cup final on Saturday, Liverpool showed great mentality in their second team match against Southampton on Tuesday with a record of 2-1 win.
This puts Jurgen Klopp’s team one point ahead of Manchester City ahead of the final round of an exciting league campaign. While Liverpool is at home with Wolverhampton, Sunday is the day the City, led by Liverpool’s great Steven Gerrard, will host Aston Villa.
Liverpool midfielder James Milner said: “No matter what happens this season, we are proud of ourselves. “All we could do was take it to the last game and we did it.”
The city is still the favourites in the race for their sixth league title over 11 seasons, but Liverpool has done their part by beating the current champions.
The Reds are all competing for the final match of the season with the Champions League final on 28 May. They have already won two national cups in one season.
Joel Matip unwittingly scored the winning goal in the 67th minute at St Mary’s, completing Liverpool’s latest comeback.
After a rare start, 36-year-old all-rounder James Milner praised the way the bench approached the game.
“The guys are amazing. they may not have run that much, but by seeing how all of them practice every day, it tells what level it is and when it needs to go up a notch.”
“This is a special group of players and a special football club. We fight to the end and keep moving forward. All we can do is push it to its limits.”
Both the team played really well in the yesterday’s match.
