Mohamed Salah, despite enduring a series of missed opportunities, proved to be the difference-maker with a clinical finish in the 65th minute. This marked his third goal in as many games and his 22nd of the season across all competitions, highlighting his importance to the team.

Speculation Surrounding Klopp’s Departure

Following Klopp’s announcement of his departure from Anfield at the end of the season, speculation arose regarding potential successors. Former Liverpool star Xabi Alonso and Brighton’s manager, Roberto de Zerbi, have been among those touted for the role.
