The beginning of the new year of 2020 gave us interesting matches in the English Premier League, whose teams can now rest and gather strength for the upcoming segment of the tournament. All today soccer results immediately caused sensations, but all the haters and competitors can’t wait for Liverpool to lose. The Merseysides have not suffered a defeat for a year and this is an excellent achievement.
The brilliant game of the Reds continues, and it looks like the players, led by Jurgen Klopp, are aimed at the record of the great Arsenal. However, no one focuses on this, and only the victory in the Premier League is important for the club itself, as well as the priorities of winning the Champions League. In the 21st round, Liverpool easily defeated Sheffield United 2:0, although the gap could have been bigger.
In addition to the expected victory of the Merseysiders, other grandees looked a little disappointing, and it was just right to classify the following matches as sensational:
- Brighton 1:1 Chelsea – Cesar Azpilicueta scored the first goal in the new year, but his efforts were not enough to win, and the Aristocrats didn’t demonstrate the expected level of football. They continued their series of unsuccessful games. Brighton, in turn, played very powerfully and the beautiful goal of Alireza Jahanbakhsh brought the desired point for the team.
- Southampton 1:0 Tottenham Hotspur – while Jose Mourinho doesn’t justify the trust of the management and fans in terms of results but as always had scandal. The Portuguese looked into the tactical notes of the assistant coach of the opponent, for which he received a yellow card and fiercely challenged his behavior in the media. Southampton, in turn, defended its victory and continued to break away from the relegation zone.
- Arsenal 2:0 Manchester United can be found among all today’s soccer results; we should also note the confident victory of the Gunners and yet another boring match of the Red Devils.
We can specifically highlight the defeat of Wolverhampton – who gained good pace – from the outsider of Watford. In general, the round was bright and with an abundance of exciting moments that pleased the fans.
Scorers’ race in the EPL
