The Reds’ season so far has been overwhelming. In 16 matches in the English Championship (with one game postponed against Everton), Arne Slot’s team has 12 wins, three draws, and just one loss, a record that puts them four points ahead of second-place Chelsea, despite having one game less.
Even with this fantastic campaign, a warning signal had been raised. After two consecutive draws in the competition, Chelsea closed in and dreamed of threatening Liverpool’s reign, but Sunday’s performance left no doubt about who rules in England.
The advantage started to grow at the 22-minute mark with Luis Díaz after a perfect cross from Alexander-Arnold. Soon after, Mac Allister extended the lead, and Maddison pulled one back for Tottenham at the 40th minute, but the hope didn’t last long. Before halftime, Szoboszlai made it even worse for the hosts.
In the second half, the show continued. In less than ten minutes, Salah scored twice, turning the game into a rout. Determined, Tottenham tried to reduce the deficit and even dreamed of something when Solanke scored their third goal, but two minutes later, Luis Díaz sealed the victory with his second goal.
With the result, Liverpool moves to 39 points with a game in hand and opens up a four-point advantage over Chelsea, who stumbled and only drew 1-1 with Everton away from home. Meanwhile, Tottenham continues its very inconsistent season, losing yet another chance to close in on the top spots. With the defeat, the London side remains with 23 points and sits in 11th place.
