Mo Salah left on the bench as Andy Robertson plus an own goal are not enough to secure all three points for Jurgen Klopp’s team
Salah, surprisingly left out of the starting line-up, was summoned from the bench by Klopp in the 79th minute after Michail Antonio equalised for West Ham.
They had come from a goal down, – a Jarrod Bowen header – to lead 2-1 thanks to Andy Robertson’s snap-shot and a comical West Ham own goal. Liverpool were awarded a penalty by referee Anthony Taylor after Angelo Ogbonna upended Cody Gakpo – and then handled the ball for good measure – but Luis Diaz was flagged offside with a VAR check confirming the assistant’s decision.
Then came the farcical own goal which could have catapulted Liverpool back into the title race. When Trent Alexander-Arnold swung in a corner, Gakpo prodded the ball in the general direction of the six-yard box, where all manner of chaos ensued.
