Premier League: Jota's Lone Goal Powers Liverpool To 1-0 Victory Over Eagles
Diego Jota: Liverpool brushed past Crystal Palace thanks to Diego Jota's lone goal on the night, handing the visitors a 1-0 victory at Selhurst Park on Saturday. Palace were mere inches from the perfect start, flying forwards from kick-off as Adam Wharton found Ismailia Sarr, who crossed for Eddie Nketiah to flick over the onrushing Alisson and into the back of the net inside 30 seconds – but the flag was up for offside.
Liverpool showed why they are the league leaders at this point of the season and responded to the early Palace dominance. An incisive pass driven into the path of Cody Gakpo in the left channel, who had the space to cross first time into the six-yard box, saw Diogo Jota open the scoring in the ninth minute, capping off his 100th start for the club with his name on the score sheet.
Liverpool could have doubled their advantage in almost the same fashion, with Jota unable to turn home from the same distance he had scored from not long ago but scuffed his attempt.
