"After trailing 1-0 for a majority of the match against Crystal Palace on Saturday at Selhurst Park, Liverpool were close to avoiding defeat as Federico Chiesa netted an 87th-minute equalizer. However, a questionably defender throw-in in the seventh minute of stoppage time led to Eddie Nketiah scoring a late Palace winner. Liverpool head coach Arne Slot was not impressed with the way his players defended their box, particularly with one."
"He didn't mention the name of the player, but looking at the footage of the goal, it seems quite obvious he was referring to last season's Premier League Player of the Year, Mohamed Salah. Arne Slot calls out one of his players for crucial error in late defeat at Crystal Palace: "One of our players decided to run out because he wanted to play a counter attack, which was of no use because time was up!" 😤 pic.twitter.com/8JZZiI9Kfm - Hayters TV (@HaytersTV) September 27, 2025"
Crystal Palace defeated Liverpool at Selhurst Park when a questionable defender throw-in in the seventh minute of stoppage time led to Eddie Nketiah's winner. Liverpool had trailed 1-0 for most of the match before Federico Chiesa scored an 87th-minute equalizer. The late error came after play had been extended into significant stoppage time and directly created the opportunity for Palace to regain the lead. Arne Slot criticised his players' defending inside the box and pointed to a player who chose to run out and attempt a counterattack despite time having expired, with footage suggesting Mohamed Salah was the player in question. The result raised concerns about concentration and time management in Liverpool's closing minutes.
