Liverpool beat Crystal Palace 1-0 this Saturday at Selhurst Park for the seventh round of the Premier League and remains the leader.
After what was the great victory over Bologna on the second day of the Champions League, Dutch Arne Slot’s men were looking to continue their streak in the local tournament.
Thus, the Merseyside team struck quickly with Diogo Jota’s goal. After a pass filtered by Mac Allister to his left, the Dutchman Cody Gakpo went over the top and put his foot in for the Portuguese striker to convert.
However, the alarms went off in both the medical staff of the English team and the Argentine National Team, since Mac Allister was replaced at halftime by the Hungarian Dominik Szoboszlai and will undergo studies to determine the severity of the injury.
The Manchester City guard beat Fulham 3-2 at the Etihad Stadium with a double from Croatian Mateo Kovacic plus the contribution of Belgian Jeremy Doku, while Brazilians Andreas Pereira and Rodrigo Muniz scored for the Londoners.
