Brentford defeated Liverpool 3-1 in a Premier League match marked by a controversial VAR decision and a late goal from Mohamed Salah. Igor Thiago scored a penalty in the 60th minute – awarded after VAR intervention for a foul by Virgil van Dijk on the penalty spot – to extend Brentford’s lead to 3-1.
The penalty proved decisive, as Salah’s 89th-minute goal, his first since mid-September, came too late for Liverpool to mount a accomplished comeback despite seven minutes of added time. The result leaves Liverpool facing a challenging upcoming fixture against Aston villa, who have regained confidence with three consecutive wins and will host Manchester City on Sunday.
