And here are the various statistics that can be picked up from this most exciting game.
Even though the score may not be that far apart Especially when Newcastle tied 1-1 and chased to 2-3 in the last ten minutes, but in fact Saying that it’s an “outclass” game might not be wrong.
When the statistics at the end of the game said that Liverpool created as many as 34 chances to finish the score, while Newcastle had only 5 chances (in the frame, Swans 15, Magpies 3).

And for those 34 chances to finish, it belongs to…

Among the smaller concerns about those 34 finishes is the form of Darwin Nuñez.
It’s true. From a total of 8 moments of switching the trigger in the little over 1 hour spent on the field (Cody Gakpo went on to replace 64),
…There was not a single goal in return.
And according to the official statistics of the Premier League, it is found that the Uruguayan striker has used 58 chances to finish in exchange for only 5 meek goals!
Statistics never lie to anyone… Darwin Nuñez has missed 18 Big Chances, making him “No. 1 in the league” in this respect, with Erling Braut Haaland (17), Ollie Watkins ( 13) and Nicholas Jackson (12) following behind.

In contrast, Mohamed Salah scored 2 goals from 6 completed chances.
This is the 18th goal in all competitions this season. and is the 14th goal in the Premier League — leading the scorer together with Erling Braut Haaland
That probably means From where the Golden Shoe award The top scorer in the Premier League is Haaland, who finished unrivaled last season (36 goals, Harry Kane accelerated towards the end, still at 30). This year, the competition for the position may not be easy to discern again.
The first half of the season has gone by standing side-by-side on the leaderboards, so stay tuned to see who will claim the Golden Boot.

At the same time, Mo Salah also made a record for scoring his 151st goal in the Premier League for Liverpool, becoming the fifth player to score over 150 goals for a single club in the Premier League, after Thierry Ong. Re (Arsenal 175), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United 183), Sergio Aguero (Manchester City 184) and Harry Kane (Tottenham 213)
However, if we count the time with Chelsea ten years ago, Salah’s latest two goals are his 153rd in the Premier League, less than ten goals away from surpassing legends Robbie Fowler and Jermain Defoe.

However, there are some negative aspects of Mo Salah with this latest game. is that he was unable to check the door bill from “penalty” Got it again For the first penalty in the 22nd minute that was not saved. Martin Dubravka
It was found that since moving in 2017, Salah has missed more penalties than any other player in the Premier League, missing 6 times out of a total of 30 penalty opportunities. Steven Gerrard (9) with Michael Owen (7) only had more missed shots. As a Liverpool player

The last time Newcastle defeated Anfield in the Premier League. We have to go back as far as 1993/94, when goals from Robert Lee and Andy Cole helped the Magpies break the wings of the Reds under Roy Evans (Ian Rush, Nigel Clough, Robbie Fa). Whaler, Jamie Redknapp, Neil Ruddock, John Barnes) down 2-0.
If you don’t believe it, you have to believe it…the next 28 years, Newcastle only got 1 point away.
Liverpool won 23 and drew 5.
28 years is still the longest period on record. It is comparable to what Chelsea have against Everton at Stamford Bridge as well.

Even if we measure “home game” statistics this season, Liverpool will be slightly behind Aston Villa when Unai Emery’s boys have gone through 10 home games with a result of winning 9 and drawing 1 (28 points).
Liverpool at Anfield this season have gone through 10 games with 8 wins and 2 draws (26 points).
There were only 2 teams that were honored to have points. Manchester United (0-0) and Arsenal (1-1) only
More important than this season’s narrow picture is the picture. “Wider” of playing at Anfield
From last season, Liverpool lost only one home match, which was Leeds United Surprisingly defeated them 2-1 at the end of October, equal to that since then, it has been 22 games since the team. Jurgen Klopp Never lose to anyone in the nest. Divided into 17 wins and 5 draws.

And in the picture opposite to Liverpool in Anfield is the blood and pus. Newcastle Yes, when you have to step away from St. James Park.
Found that there was only Sheffield United Only one team did worse. For the results of away games in the Premier League this season, most of them have completed 10 away matches.

Lost 7 out of 10 matches and were able to defeat only one team against the villagers. The way it must be “True fan” Only to be able to answer that All in one game Which match is that?
The answer is without thinking too much – it’s Sheffield United who lost to Newcastle by a record 0-8 at the beginning of the season.
Ah…or the Magpies will get hit. “The Mystery of Bramall Lane” has arrived?!?

Lost 7 of the last 8 games in every cup and lost 5 of the last 6 in the Premier League until the ranking dropped down to 9th.
Clearly, this is a different team from the team that produced the masterpiece that qualified them for the Champions League by finishing in 4th place.
Of course, in one way, Eddie Howe can be blamed for having a hard time with “Motivation Karma”, with injuries overflowing into half the team. which has been faced for the past 2-3 months, which must also be added by the suspension of another key midfield man, Sandro Tornali.
In theory, there may still be a chance. But in practice I really can’t see how Newcastle can return to the Champions League again.
