Southampton manager Russell Martin was left “annoyed” at two refereeing decisions that he believes went against his side in their 3-2 loss to Liverpool. Martin’s bottom-placed side hosted the league leaders at St Mary’s on Saturday and, despite going 2-1 up, let the points slip as Liverpool came away winners. It kept Southampton at the foot of the table and extended the Reds’ lead over Man City to eight points after 12 games. The afternoon was not short of controversy, including a potential red-card challenge from Adam Lallana and a debatable penalty awarded to the hosts for a foul on…
Sky Sports pundit Jamie Redknapp had to endure an awkward moment on air with broadcaster Kelly Cates at half-time during Liverpool’s 3-2 win over Southampton – but the Super Sunday host bailed him out. The Reds moved eight points clear at the top of the Premier League, turning the game around in the final 25 minutes after being 2-1 down against the Saints, with a brace from Mohamed Salah seeing Arne Slot’s side past Southampton. However, one notable talking point at half-time was the awkward interaction between Redknapp and Cates. Following Liverpool’s game, the next match being broadcast by Sky…
Fans on X have hailed Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah after his brace inspired the Reds to a 3-2 comeback win against Southampton in their Premier League clash. The two sides locked horns at St. Mary’s Stadium on Sunday, November 24. The Saints were punished early on for playing out at the back when goalkeeper Alex McCarthy’s pass led to a series of errors in the box. Dominik Szoboszlai capitalized on a poor clearance to curl the ball in off the far post to make it 1-0 in the 30th minute. Andy Robertson was conceded a penalty 10 minutes later after…
The travelling Kop had experienced such a rollercoaster of emotions in the last 24 hours they weren’t going to be denied. And as the roars grew among the Liverpool support, so Arne Slot delivered. As the Reds head coach slowly wandered towards the far corner of the St Mary’s Stadium after the final whistle, he was greeted with a crescendo of noise before acknowledging the huge vocal backing with a wave and a thumbs up. If this was arguably the loudest the acclaim had thus far been afforded Slot at an away match, it was merited given the manner in…
Liverpool needed a late brace from Mohamed Salah to extend its lead at the top of the Premier League table to eight points. Southampton proved a difficult opponent for Arne Slot’s side despite being bottom of the standings. The Egyptian forward netted an equalizer when he raced onto a long pass to beat the outrushing Alex McCarthy, and then scored from the penalty spot when Yuki Suguwara handled the ball as he attempted to chest it back to his goalkeeper. Salah held his nerve to ensure the Reds didn’t fail to capitalize on Manchester City’s 4-0 home defeat against Spurs…
Roy Keane believes Adam Lallana was fortunate not to be sent off for a foul on Liverpool midfielder Ryan Gravenberch. The Southampton midfielder flew into a thumping challenge with the Dutchman in the first-half and was shown a yellow card. The lunge from the 36-year-old left Gravenberch in a heap but there were no protests from Liverpool over the malice of the challenge. Lallana was one of three first-half cautions from referee Samuel Barrott with Ibrahima Konate and Conor Bradley going in the book. The former Liverpool midfielder’s involvement at St Mary’s was over shortly after picking up a hamstring…

The Premier League has explained why VAR stuck with the decision made by referee Samuel Barrott to award Southampton a penalty against Liverpool on Sunday. Towards the end of the first half, Robertson fouled Southampton midfielder Tyler Dibling and Barrott paused before eventually pointing to the spot. There was then a VAR review, as replay cameras appeared to show that the foul occurred outside of the 18-yard box.

Southampton equalised against Liverpool after a controversial penalty decision in the Premier League fixture. The Premier League leaders were in front thanks to Dominik Szoboszlai’s opening goal but their advantage did not last long at St Mary’s. Southampton were awarded a penalty and Adam Armstrong converted the rebound Caoimhin Kelleher had saved his initial effort. However, the decision to award the penalty was controversial, with Andy Robertson tripping winger Tyler Dibling as he looked to dribble into the box. It was definitely a foul, but whether the debate came down to whether the contact from Robertson on Dibbling was inside…
Liverpool will travel to St Mary’s to face Southampton on Sunday afternoon as they look to go eight points clear at the top of the Premier League. The Reds will back back in action following the international break, but Manchester City’s emphatic loss to Tottenham on Saturday evening means that Arne Slot’s side can increase their gap at the top of the table. With massive games against Real Madrid and Manchester City fast approaching, Slot will surely be thinking of rotating his side against bottom of the league Southampton, but injuries may force the Dutchman into playing many of Liverpool’s…
