Liverpool match Premier League anti-record. What happened?
In the headline clash of Matchday 25 in the English Premier League, Liverpool faced Manchester City, and it was in this game that an unwanted record was set.
Details: according to Opta, Liverpool have now conceded their fourth goal this season that proved to be the match-winner for the opposition in the 90+ minutes. This is the highest such figure recorded by a single team in one Premier League season.
Previously, the same fate had befallen Watford in 2017–18, West Ham in 2021–22, Watford again in 2021–22, and Southampton in 2024–25.
The match at Anfield turned into a real thriller, keeping fans on edge until the very final moments. The drama reached its peak in stoppage time, when Erling Haaland calmly converted a penalty to put the Citizens ahead 2:1.
Let us remind: in the closing moments, a third goal was also scored but subsequently ruled out by the officials, and Dominik Szoboszlai was sent off following a VAR review.
