Liverpool Edges Closer to Premier League Glory After Dramatic Weekend

Liverpool strengthened their grip on the Premier League title this weekend, with Gary Lineker expressing doubt that anyone can catch them.

The Reds secured a thrilling late victory over a stubborn Brentford side, thanks to two injury-time goals from Darwin Núñez.

Brentford’s resilience had threatened to force Liverpool into dropping points for a third consecutive game, offering Arsenal a chance to close the gap.

However, Núñez came off the bench to seal a crucial win at a venue where Brentford rarely lose.

Liverpool’s day got even better as Arsenal faltered in their clash against Aston Villa. Despite leading 2-0, the Gunners squandered their advantage, ending in a 2-2 draw and slipping six points behind the league leaders. Liverpool still has a game in hand, which could extend their lead even further.

On The Rest is Football podcast, Alan Shearer asked whether this was the weekend that effectively sealed the title race.

Gary Lineker responded with confidence in Liverpool’s position, emphasizing their squad depth, momentum, and the expertise of their manager, Arne Slot.

“It’s hard to see them letting this slip,” Lineker stated. “Arsenal have injury issues, and Manchester City are too far behind. It’s Liverpool’s title to lose now.”

Meanwhile, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta expressed pride in his team’s effort but admitted defensive lapses proved costly.

“The boys played with dominance and determination, but we cannot concede goals like that,” Arteta said. “We deserved more, but the defensive errors made the difference.”

Liverpool manager Arne Slot praised his team’s persistence after their dramatic win at Brentford. “You hope for moments like this during the season,” he told BBC Sport.

“We’ve come close to late winners before, but today it worked. It was a significant result in a tough match.”

With Liverpool in top form and their rivals stumbling, the Reds appear poised to claim the Premier League title. While there is still a long way to go, their dominance this weekend underscored their status as favorites to lift the trophy.
