Leeds United 3-3 Liverpool: Tanaka strikes in stoppage time as Slots struggles continue - Soccer News
"Curtis Jones' curling strike that rattled the crossbar was the highlight of a low-key first half, but Hugo Ekitike scored twice in the first five minutes of the second period to put Liverpool 2-0 up. Ekitike intercepted Joe Rodon's errant pass to finish into the bottom-left corner in the 48th minute, then stayed onside to bundle home after Conor Bradley dispossessed Gabriel Gudmundsson and crossed from the right."
"But Leeds received a 73rd-minute lifeline when Ibrahima Konate recklessly scythed Wilfried Gnonto down. A penalty was awarded following a VAR review, and former Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin converted confidently. The momentum was with Leeds at that point, and just two minutes later, Anton Stach cut inside from the left side of the area under little pressure before powering home."
Leeds and Liverpool played a 3-3 Premier League draw at Elland Road. Liverpool moved 2-0 ahead early in the second half after Hugo Ekitike scored twice inside the first five minutes, including an interception and a close-range finish from a Conor Bradley cross. Leeds gained a lifeline when Ibrahima Konate conceded a penalty, converted by Dominic Calvert-Lewin, and Anton Stach levelled two minutes later. Dominik Szoboszlai restored Liverpool's lead in the 80th minute, but deep into nine minutes of stoppage time Stach's corner reached Ao Tanaka, who rifled home to secure a dramatic late equaliser. The goal was another late, result-altering strike conceded by Liverpool this season.
