Liverpool is on a roll. The ‘reds’ defeated Leicester (2-0) at home, placing themselves 9 points behind Manchester City with one game in hand. Jrgen Klopp’s team is chasing the lead on the back of a Diogo Jota who is in top form.
The Portuguese striker signed a brace with which he reached 17 goals in all tournaments. He surpassed the 16 that he accumulated with Wolverhampton in 2019-20 with two goals, one in each half, with which they finished off a Leicester that is a drain. They have conceded 39 goals! And that Schmeichel had a brilliant performance for a ‘foxes’ anchored in the middle of the table, far from any option to reach Europe.
Liverpool had fun with a Luis Diaz who started in the Premier. He was a cyclone on his side and grazed the goal on several occasions. Same as Salah. He came back from the African Cup in which he came out runner-up and played a formidable half hour. He had a one-on-one that the Danish goalkeeper took out and crashed a ball into the top corner.
Only Salah improves on Jota
The leading scorer went to a Jota who He has 12 goals in this Premier. Only the Egyptian (16) exceeds his goals in the English League. It is a torment for rival defenses. Klopp has a dog.
