"The Black Cats took the lead in the 67th minute when Chemsdine Talbi's effort deflected home via the backside of Virgil van Dijk. But the Reds, who hit the post through Alexis Mac Allister in the first half, earned a share of the spoils when Nordi Mukiele lucklessly deflected Florian Wirtz's effort past Robin Roefs with nine minutes to play."
"Sunderland had hit the woodwork twice themselves, first in a fine first-half performance when Trai Hume's long-range stinger was diverted onto the crossbar by Alisson, and then when Omar Alderete glanced Enzo Le Fee's corner onto the outside of the right post just before the hour. However, Talbi let fly from 25 yards out soon after and found the bottom-left corner via Van Dijk's deflection."
Liverpool and Sunderland played out a 1-1 draw at Anfield. Chemsdine Talbi gave Sunderland the lead in the 67th minute when his 25-yard effort deflected off Virgil van Dijk into the bottom-left corner. Liverpool equalised with nine minutes remaining when Florian Wirtz's mazy run produced a wayward shot that Nordi Mukiele deflected past Robin Roefs. Sunderland hit the woodwork twice, with Trai Hume's long-range effort diverted onto the crossbar by Alisson and Omar Alderete glancing Enzo Le Fee's corner onto the outside of the right post. Liverpool outshot Sunderland 23-9 but managed only a share of the points; Liverpool had 1.46 xG overall while Sunderland averaged 0.04 xG per attempt and produced more attempts on target, six to four.
