Mr. Brooks also whistled another penalty for the Reds for a foul by Sanchez on Jones, which he canceled (45th + 2), and Chelsea returned to contact after the break when Nicolas Jackson, well served in depth by Moises Caicedo, deceived Caoimhin Kelleher. First refused for offside, the Senegalese striker’s goal was finally validated, the player being covered by Ibrahima Konaté (49th). But Liverpool immediately responded, with a cross from Salah on which Jones dived to make Anfield roar (51st). Chelsea, with Malo Gusto at the kick-off, Reece James back, Benoît Badiashile and Christopher Nkunku coming on, were unable to really put the Reds under pressure afterwards, despite the efforts of Pedro Neto and with a Cole Palmer who was not having a good day. He still placed a free kick on the head of Renato Veiga to finish, but the ball went over (90th + 3).
