Liverpool move top of Premier League
Liverpool have moved top of the Premier League after defeating 10-man Crystal Palace 2-1 on Saturday in a game they came back from a goal down to win.
Palace were in control of the match after they had gone ahead when Jordan Ayew was sent off, bringing Liverpool back to the game.
After a goalless first half, Palace scored in the 57th minute from the penalty spot.
Jean-Philippe Mateta ran up to the ball, stopped and waited for Alisson to commit before slotting the penalty into the bottom right corner to make it 1-0.
