Liverpool restored its winning tone by defeating its guest, Wolverhampton, with two unanswered goals, this evening, Wednesday, in the postponed match from the seventh round of the English Premier League.
Liverpool scored Virgil Van Dyck in the 73rd minute and Mohamed Salah in the 77th minute.
With that result, Liverpool raised its score to 39 points, rising to sixth place, while Wolverhampton froze at 24 points in 15th place.
The first attempt in the match came in favor of Liverpool in the third minute, with a shot from Basitic from inside the area, which went weak in the hands of Sa.
Wolverhampton responded immediately after, with a distinctive shot from Moutinho from inside the area, Alisson shone in banishing it for a corner kick.
From that corner, Jimenez followed a cross, hitting a scissor kick that passed next to the post.
Liverpool returned to try in the 11th minute, with Nunez following up a cross from a corner by Tsimikas, hitting a straight ball that went wide of the goal.
Salah penetrated the right side, sending a cross to Jota in the 19th minute, and the Portuguese hit it with the heel to pass next to the post.
