LONDON: Liverpool’s journey to London Stadium has left many football fans feeling disappointed, with their slimming chances of clinching the Premier League title becoming more apparent.
As Jurgen Klopp prepares to bid farewell to the club at the end of the season, hopes were high that the title would be a fitting tribute to his legacy at Anfield. However, David Moyes’ West Ham United side held the Reds to a 2-2 draw, forcing them to settle for a single point from the away game.
Liverpool dominated the game in the first half, but their efforts were thwarted when Jarrod Bowen found the back of the net for West Ham in the 43rd minute. Despite this setback, Andrew Robertson managed to equalize for Liverpool early in the second half.
However, their lead was short-lived as Angelo Ogbonna inadvertently deflected the ball into his own net, putting Liverpool ahead. The visitors seemed poised to secure all three points until Michail Antonio’s equalizer in the 77th minute dashed their hopes.
Despite late raids by Liverpool, the final whistle blew with the scoreline deadlocked at 2-2.
