Liverpool, ultimately, gained. On the dying. On the end, cruelly robbing Newcastle whose 10-men had mounted a unprecedented and stirring comeback.
How Newcastle will hope that is the one late, late victory Liverpool obtain over them this month as they desperately try to maintain onto their striker Alexander Isak within the final week of the switch window after such an acrimonious saga.
Commercial
Newcastle will really feel cheated right here and can really feel like one other crime is dedicated if Isak goes. However the sight of their chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan on the aspect of the pitch on the closing whistle, together with co-owner Jamie Reuben, consoling Eddie Howe counsel a decision is shut. This was the primary dwelling sport that Al-Rumayyan has attended since February and he clearly wished to be seen.
Newcastle can even naturally really feel they might have gained with Isak of their workforce fairly than sitting at dwelling and presumably watching.
Rio Ngumoha, the gloriously proficient 16-year-old, got here on to win it for Liverpool as he scored within the one hundredth minute of yet one more well-known, momentous assembly between these two golf equipment.
As soon as once more Liverpool gained by the odd purpose in a high-scoring drama and what a purpose it was. Little marvel that Arne Slot hugged Ngumoha earlier than pushing him in the direction of the away finish to take the deserved acclaim.

He claimed his purpose with astonishing calmness as Dominik Szoboszlai cleverly dummied a cross and the ahead swept his first-time shot round Nick Pope and into the web to develop into the youngest league scorer in Liverpool’s historical past – at 16 years and 361 days (he’s 17 on Friday). And this was his league debut having left Chelsea final 12 months.
What a method to announce himself as he additionally develop into solely the second 16-year-old to attain a Premier League profitable purpose. The opposite? A sure Wayne Rooney.
A star is born? Undoubtedly as Ngumoha took the headlines away in a roller-coaster of a sport from three totally different centre-forwards: from Isak to the participant deputising for him for Newcastle to a younger reserve who had appeared to finish the defiant comeback from 2-0 down.
on the finish of a first-half when he had impressed. Then Will Osula, the 22-year-old back-up and one other late substitute, ran onto a routine lengthy free-kick from deep to beat Alisson and spark gorgeous scenes.
At instances Newcastle had been taking part in on emotion – an excessive amount of of it in Gordon’s case – however they virtually made it depend as they had been pushed on by their captain Bruno Guimaraes and overcame the adversity of not simply the purple card however dropping two thirds of their super-strength, their midfield, to harm. Each Sandro Tonali and Joelinton had been compelled off and it doesn’t look good for them whereas Fabian Schar suffered a suspected concussion.

There can even be a three-match ban for Gordon for severe foul play as he charged into Virgil van Dijk which leaves Newcastle in but extra problem.

“Hand him over, hand him over,” chanted the Liverpool supporters after their second purpose with Hugo Ekitike making it three video games in a row that he has scored. The Frenchman, after all, selected Liverpool over Newcastle earlier within the window.
What a sport. Whereas Liverpool gained and made it two victories from two as they try to retain their title it was regarding – as in opposition to Bournemouth – how weak they take a look at the again and the way little management they’ve. Identical to their opening sport of the season, a 2-0 lead was surrendered. Once more their document signing, Florian Wirtz, did not make an affect.
“Into them,” posted Reuben on X – utilizing the phrase on a banner held by Newcastle followers – earlier than deleting it nevertheless it betrayed the sense from Newcastle and their emotions in the direction of Liverpool. Whether or not they’re warranted or not. “I’m not too certain it was a soccer match at the moment,” Slot later mentioned. It was however we all know what he meant. It was too helter-skelter. “Very us. Excessive-octane, front-foot soccer,” Howe said.

However for all their depth, Newcastle solely created one clear probability with Gordon heading narrowly over earlier than they fell behind. Liverpool withstood the storm, drew the sting and struck because the returning Ryan Gravenberch shot low from outdoors the penalty space, with the ball brushing over Schar’s boot, leaving Nick Pope unsighted and clipping the submit on its means into the web.
Perhaps it fired Gordon up much more as he tried to shut down Van Dijk solely to crash into him. Referee Simon Hooper was despatched to the pitchside monitor by the VAR John Brooks and the purple card was inevitable.
There was extra ache for Newcastle and extra ruthlessness from Liverpool. Lower than 20 seconds into the second half, Liverpool attacked with the ball rebounding again to Cody Gakpo after his shot was blocked. He stabbed it to Ekitike, who sidefooted unerringly previous Pope. Once more it kissed the submit on the way in which in with Slot lacking the purpose as he had not re-taken his seat.
Recreation over? It ought to have been. However what a response from Newcastle, sparked by the relentless Guimaraes with the Brazilian simply wanting it greater than Milos Kerkez to move dwelling on the far submit.
It even seemed like they could go on to win it however, possibly, overcommitted with Liverpool countering and hitting them with that sucker punch. Within the context of what has been taking place with Isak that can have harm much more.
