Liverpool briefly claimed top spot in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon, following their 2-0 win over Watford at Anfield.
Though not a sparkling performance, the Reds allowed their quality to shine through enough to pick up a vital three points, before Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City later restored their one point gap at the top. Diogo Jota opened the scoring with his 20th goal of the season, coming from a Joe Gomez cross, before Fabinho rounded off the victory with a late penalty.
Next up in the league for Liverpool is the potential title-decider against City at the Etihad on April 10. Here’s what the national media had to say as Liverpool kept the title race alive with their tenth consecutive win.
