Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker scored a rare header in the 94th minute to restore Liverpool’s lead against relegation-bound West Bromwich Albion.
Hal Robson-Kanu gave West Brom the lead in the first half before Mohamed Salah scored minutes to the break to bring the Reds level. The host had a goal ruled offside in the second half but it was Liverpool that had the last laugh after struggling to break the mid-block by West Brom.
Trent Alexander-Arnold hit a corner kick and Alisson flicked to score his first goal for Liverpool and the first by a Liverpool goalkeeper.
This implies that Liverpool now has 63 points, a point behind fourth-placed Chelsea and three points behind third-placed Leicester City.
All teams remain with two games to decide their fate on whether they will play Uefa Champions League next season or not.
