Liverpool 4 Leeds United 3

Good result it seems. Any neutral would have taken it before the match.
Leeds were beaten by two soft penalties and goals from set pieces.
Given that Leeds were playing with a makeshift defense, and at times in sixes, they can only get better.
But the frailty in defending from set pieces needs to be ironed out quickly.
Bielsa’s strategy of man marking and pressing high, meant Liverpool were a reduced thread from open play although the renown fit Leeds, tire out quickly in the last 10 minute and in the process conceded.
Credit to Leeds, all were from dead ball situations.
And how many teams go to Anfield and dominate possession.
Leeds deserved a consoling pat, but results matters.
Leeds need 12 wins or 36 points with 37 games left.
Today, it's at least 1 point lost.
