Liverpool extended their winning streak in the Premier League to six games with a hard-fought victory over Brentford.
The win keeps them within touching distance of the top four and a spot in next season’s Champions League. Mohamed Salah continued his phenomenal scoring record, netting his 100th goal at Anfield and becoming the first Liverpool player to score in nine consecutive home matches across all competitions.
Despite Brentford’s best efforts, they were denied a deserved equaliser when Bryan Mbeumo’s goal was ruled offside following a VAR review.
Meanwhile, Liverpool fans caused controversy by booing the playing of the national anthem at Anfield on the day of King Charles III’s coronation, despite the club acknowledging that some supporters have strong views on the matter.
