.LFC moved another step closer to the Premier League title as it chalked up a record-breaking 20th win in 21 matches with a 1-0 victory over SpursOfficial. Manager Juergen Klopp said it’s 'really cool,” but no time to celebrate
LONDON - Liverpool overcame another obstacle on the path to what looks an almost certain Premier League title triumph as they chalked up a record-breaking 20th win in 21 matches with a hard-fought 1-0 victory at Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.
Third-placed defending champions Manchester City, who are a point further back, visit lowly Aston Villa on Sunday. Everton shrugged off last week’s FA Cup defeat by Liverpool as their improved league form continued with a 1-0 home win against Brighton & Hove Albion to move level on points with 10th-placed Arsenal who drew 1-1 at Crystal Palace.
“It’s special. To win the number of games, to always be ready to fight, that’s what the boys do,” Klopp said. “We intensified the pressure more in the second half. We were more aggressive,” Mourinho, whose side are now nine points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, said.Manchester United go to Liverpool next weekend and will do so with added momentum after Marcus Rashford scored twice to bury Norwich on his 200th appearance for the club. At 22 he is the third-youngest player to reach that milestone for United.
Two minutes later Mata set up Anthony Martial for the third before substitute Mason Greenwood put the icing on the cake.
