Liverpool secured a 2-1 victory over Chelsea to return to the top of the Premier League, with Curtis Jones scoring the decisive goal following Nicolas Jackson's equalizer. Mohamed Salah initially put Liverpool ahead with a penalty after Levi Colwill fouled Jones. Despite Chelsea's strong start and several controversial refereeing decisions, including a yellow card for Tosin Adarabioyo and a reversed penalty call against Robert Sanchez, Liverpool displayed resilience. The match was marked by VAR interventions, notably confirming Jackson's goal and overturning a penalty awarded to Liverpool. Chelsea showed promise under Enzo Maresca, suggesting they remain contenders for a top-four finish, but Liverpool's tactical organization and perseverance proved decisive. This victory keeps Liverpool one point ahead of Manchester City, emphasizing their potential to challenge for the title this season.
