Liverpool clashed heads with Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Molineux Stadium earlier tonight as they looked to secure a good result on the road in the Premier League. The Reds made a bright start to the game but were held to a scoreless draw at the half-time break.
Rodrigo Gomes scored the opener for Wolves in the 78th minute, but Mohamed Salah equalised for Arne Slot’s side just five minutes later. Andre ended up scoring the winning goal for the West Midlands club in injury time as the Merseyside club suffered a disappointing 2-1 loss at the Molineux.
