West Ham United saw their advantage on the Premier League’s relegation zone cut to five points after losing 2-1 to Liverpool at the London Stadium on Wednesday.
Lucas Paqueta had given the Hammers the lead early in the first half with a stunning goal at the end of a brilliant team move, only for Cody Gakpo to cancel it out with a long-range effort six minutes later. Joel Matip’s second half header sealed three points for Jurgen Klopp’s men.
Here are the talking points as West Ham suffered just their second defeat in their last 11 matches in all competitions.
