A much-changed Liverpool side came from behind to win at Villa Park to keep the pressure on league leaders Manchester City.

For all the stunning simplicity of Liverpool’s second goal, the equivalent of the perfect cheese on toast, Villa had plenty enough chances to take at least one point and probably three. Douglas Luiz had two bites and dined on the second. Trent Alexander-Arnold’s free-kick appeared comparatively harmless, slightly looped toward Tyrone Mings. Somehow he – and at least one more – Villa defender acted or thought out of turn. This time Naby Keita inexplicably trod on the ball from Trent Alexander Arnold’s cross. The Dutch colossus breezed through such a contest of high stakes displaying masterful quality. Klopp spent Saturday late evening explaining why he could never coach a team to be defensive, so he must have been mightily impressed by the intensity of Villa’s start.

It was a cagey affair that looked like Liverpool could drop points for a second-straight match, but Sadio Mane scored in the 65th minute to get the Reds to 86 ...

Oddly enough, it was the one who looked in worse position, Sadio Mane, who leaned back and found the strength to turn an off-balance header inside the frame. 2. Not a banner day for Jon Moss and crew: An early offside against Aston Villa went unspotted and a few moves later the ball was in Liverpool’s goal, unable to be reviewed because the initial chance/phase has gone. Man City can, however, go up six points on Liverpool before the Reds meet Southampton for their 37th game, which won’t come until Tuesday, May 17.
