Liverpool Wins, Nunez Shines in Stoppage Time

Liverpool secured a dramatic 2-0 victory over Brentford with substitute Darwin Nunez scoring twice in stoppage time, maintaining their position as Premier League leaders with a seven-point lead over Arsenal. Despite facing strong resistance from Brentford and missing several scoring opportunities, Nunez's late intervention ensured the win for Liverpool, highlighting his importance amid transfer speculation. Brentford had early chances with Mikkel Damsgaard and Bryan Mbeumo coming close, but Liverpool's persistent attacking efforts paid off late in the game. This victory piled pressure on Arsenal, who were set to play later in the day. The match also showcased Liverpool's tactical depth, as manager Arne Slot's decision to field Nunez late proved decisive.
