Liverpool Wins 2-0, Extends Premier League Lead

News summary

Liverpool secured a crucial 2-0 victory over Aston Villa, extending their lead at the top of the Premier League to five points following Manchester City's earlier defeat to Brighton. Darwin Nunez opened the scoring with a goal from a tight angle in the 20th minute, and Mohamed Salah sealed the win with a late breakaway goal. Despite a scrappy game with few clear chances, Liverpool's defense, including key saves by goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, maintained their lead. The win marks Liverpool's 15th in 17 matches under new manager Arne Slot, illustrating their strong start to the season. Concerns arose with Trent Alexander-Arnold's injury, but Liverpool's momentum remains strong as they head into the international break. Villa's efforts included penalty appeals that were denied, leaving them eighth in the table after a fourth consecutive defeat.
