After the 7-2 humiliation by Aston Villa and a draw in the city derby against Everton, Liverpool was eager to win. But things did not start well with the match against Sheffield.
Fabinho, the replacement for the injured Virgil van Dijk in the center of the back, committed an error in his own penalty area and Sander Berge converted the penalty: 0-1.
The visitors even came close to a double lead, but a first win of the season was not possible for Sheffield. In the rebound Firmino equalized from close range and after half time Jota headed the 2-1 in goal.
Salah, who also saw a goal for offside being rejected by the VAR, saw the 3-1 strand on the post. Liverpool is currently at the head of the standings leader Everton, Sheffield remains at the bottom without a win.
