Liverpool Secures 2-1 Win Over Wolves, Maintains Seven-Point Lead in Premier League

Liverpool solidified its position at the top of the Premier League with a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Wolverhampton, extending its lead over Arsenal to seven points. Goals from Luis Díaz and Mohamed Salah gave Liverpool a commanding first-half lead, but Matheus Cunha's second-half strike for Wolves intensified the tension, with Liverpool failing to register a shot on goal after halftime. Manager Arne Slot acknowledged the significance of such unconvincing wins for title-challenging teams, emphasizing the need for resilience. Meanwhile, Manchester United's struggles continued with a 1-0 defeat to Tottenham, marking their 12th league loss this season and leaving them languishing in 15th place. Under new manager Ruben Amorim, United has had a challenging start, with only four league wins in 21 games. The contrasting fortunes of the two clubs highlight the current state of English football, with Liverpool poised to chase their 20th league title while United's title drought extends to 12 years.
