On Saturday afternoon in the English "Premier" league the 4th round of matches started.
"Leicester City" hosted "Liverpool" at home. Jurgen Klopp's team continued their winning streak - securing their fourth consecutive victory and remaining in the top position.
The match for the "Reds" started with a quick goal - in the 10th minute the "Foxes" stadium was silenced by Sadio Mane's goal. Andrew Robertson made a sharp pass into the penalty area from the flank, where the Senegalese striker struck accurately.
In the first half, "Liverpool" did not dominate possession but did not allow dangerous opportunities for the hosts.
In the 45th minute, "Liverpool" came closer to victory - after a corner kick, Roberto Firmino headed accurately into the opponent's goal. It was his first goal of the season.
In the second half, the "Foxes" played more aggressively and more sharply, and in the 63rd minute they finally breached "Liverpool's" goal for the first time in this "Premier" league season.
The Brazilian decided to showcase his ball skills in the penalty area, but this time they were not of high quality - Kelechi Iheanacho took the ball from the goalkeeper's feet and passed it to Rachid Ghezzal, who only had to direct the ball accurately into the opponent's goal.
