MADRID, 24 Abr. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Liverpool beat Everton (2-0) this Sunday on matchday 34 of the Premier to return to being one point behind the leader Manchester City, while Chelsea defended its third place at the expense of West Ham’s ‘Champions’ aspirations (1-0).
Jürgen Klopp’s men signed up for the Merseyside derby at Anfield to respond to City’s victory the day before and once again reduce the difference between the two contenders for the title to a minimum. The ‘red’ team had to sweat to knock down a well-ordered Everton.
In the 62nd minute was when Andrew Robertson opened the can, directing a victory that maintains the poker title option for Liverpoool, and Origi sentenced five minutes from the end. Everton remains in the relegation places, third from bottom.
In addition, the day left this Sunday the agonizing triumph of Chelsea in the derby against a West Ham that sees the ‘Top 4’ move away. The ‘blues’ consolidate it, thanks to a goal in the 90th minute of
Christian Pulisic, shortly after Jorginho missed a penalty.
Thomas Tuchel’s men saved another poor performance at the Bridge, to recover from the blow against Arsenal and return to third place. West Ham is seventh and on Thursday they will play the first leg of the Europa League semifinals against Eintracht Frankfurt.
