In the third match of the first five rounds, Liverpool was behind again but won back, before that were matches against Bournemouth and Newcastle. In those two matches, Jurgen Klopp's team won both when they had one person sent off. This time, the team still kept 11 people on the field until the end of the match, when they came back to extend their winning streak to four matches.
Just like at Newcastle, this time Liverpool had to wait until near the end of the match to subdue the host Wolves. Minute 85. Mohamed Salah passed under his armpit to Robertson who rushed down to face the goalkeeper and then scored a touch to the near corner to increase the score to 2-1. The Wolves defense did not have any players following Robertson in this situation, and before that, goalkeeper Jose Sa also kicked the ball up too quickly and let the Liverpool player steal it.
Just six minutes later, the match was arranged and this time Alisson showed Sa the difference in level between the two goalkeepers. The Brazilian goalkeeper faked a move to prevent the opponent from getting close, giving him time to flick the ball into the middle of the field right where Darwin Nunez was. The Uruguayan striker turned around and flicked the ball up before sending it to Salah's position. The Egyptian star let go so that 20-year-old midfielder Harvey Elliott's low shot grazed the legs of defender Hugo Bueno, then hit the post and into the net.
