Liverpool’s dominance in the Premier League faced an early scare when bottom-placed Southampton struck against the run of play at Anfield. The Reds, known for their high-intensity starts, were left scrambling as a defensive lapse between Virgil van Dijk and Alisson gifted Will Smallbone a golden opportunity. The Southampton midfielder made no mistake, sliding the ball through Alisson’s legs to give the visitors a shocking lead just before halftime. Anfield fell silent, and Arne Slot—watching from the stands due to suspension—could only shake his head in disbelief.
Recognizing the need for immediate change, Slot made a triple substitution at halftime, introducing Alexis Mac Allister, Andrew Robertson, and Harvey Elliott. The move injected fresh energy into Liverpool’s attack, and within minutes, they began turning the tide. Luis Diaz, a constant menace down the left flank, weaved through Southampton’s defense before delivering a pinpoint cross. Darwin Nunez, often criticized for his finishing, made no mistake this time, hammering the ball past Aaron Ramsdale to bring Liverpool level in the 51st minute.
With momentum shifting in Liverpool’s favor, it took just four more minutes for the Reds to take the lead. Nunez, now brimming with confidence, drove into the penalty area, only to be brought down by Smallbone’s mistimed challenge. The referee had no hesitation in pointing to the spot, and Mohamed Salah stepped up.
The Egyptian forward, chasing his 32nd goal of the season, drilled the penalty home with clinical precision, sending Ramsdale the wrong way and sparking wild celebrations inside Anfield.
Southampton’s resilience crumbled further when a VAR check confirmed a handball by Yukinari Sugawara inside the penalty box. With the opportunity to put the game to bed, Salah once again stepped forward. The result was inevitable—another emphatic penalty, another roar from the Kop, and another step closer to Liverpool’s long-awaited 20th league title. With Arsenal still holding two games in hand, their challenge remains alive, but Liverpool’s relentless form leaves little hope for a late twist in the title race.
With only one league match in March due to fixture scheduling, Liverpool now shifts focus to the Champions League, where they look to finish off Paris Saint-Germain after a narrow first-leg victory. Following that, a trip to Wembley for the League Cup final against Newcastle presents an opportunity to secure the first silverware of the Slot era. With just nine league games left and only one defeat all season, Liverpool’s charge toward history appears unstoppable. Southampton, on the other hand, remains rooted at the bottom, staring at what seems to be an inevitable relegation.
