"Being a Liverpool fan is not for the faint of heart. After the late surge of emotion sparked by Cody Gakpo's 94th-minute go-ahead goal, one that looked destined to seal the win, Harrison Reed struck back with a stunning "goal-of-the-season" contender in the dying moments to snatch a point from the Reds."
"Alisson Becker: 6.5/10- His recent decision-making when coming off his line has been a cause for concern. He narrowly avoided a howler in the 76th minute, racing out aggressively and escaping punishment only as Harry Wilson's attempted chip drifted just wide of completing a brace. He may also have been able to stretch a little further to keep out the opener, though there was nothing he could have done about Reed's worldie."
"Ibrahima Konaté: 5.5/10- A clear miscommunication with Virgil led to shared blame for the opener, and he was nearly caught badly out of position for what could have been Wilson's second. The mistakes are becoming routine, and Liverpool may feel Giovanni Leoni cannot return soon enough, while Marc Guéhi's potential arrival cannot come quickly enough."
Liverpool rallied late when Cody Gakpo scored a 94th-minute go-ahead goal, only for Harrison Reed to equalise with a spectacular strike in stoppage time. Liverpool trailed 1-0 after a lethargic first half and were forced to increase tempo to recover. The draw extends Liverpool's unbeaten run to eight matches, offering some encouragement after recent defeats. Goalkeeper decision-making and defensive miscommunications contributed to the team conceding. Individual performances were mixed: Alisson escaped a late howler but remains a concern, Virgil Van Dijk had an uncharacteristic outing, and Ibrahima Konaté continues to make routine errors.
