Neil Johnston, Jess Anderson & Emlyn Begley

  1. Liverpool 1-1 Sunderland

    Bad news for Florian Wirtz. He's back down to zero Liverpool goals.

    Nordi Mukiele has been credited with the own goal.

  2. 'Lovely bit of skill from Wirtz'

    Liverpool 1-1 Sunderland

    Dion Dublin
    Former Aston Villa and Man Utd striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    It's a lovely bit of skill from Wirtz. He feints once, he feints twice and then it does take a huge deflection and goes in. The keeper has no chance. He deserves that bit of luck just for being positive.

  3. Leeds 3-1 Chelsea

    Gabriel Gudmundsson and Noah Okfar have efforts off target as Leeds try to put this to bed.

  4. 'Anfield erupts'

    Liverpool 1-1 Sunderland

    Jamie Carragher
    Former Liverpool defender on Sky Sports

    Wirtz gets his goal. The crowd erupts.

    That's what you need to do, be more aggressive, be on the front foot and that all came from Curtis Jones.

  5. Liverpool 1-1 Sunderland

    Half time substitute Mohamed Salah (31) has had twice as many touches than Alexander Isak in this match (15).

  6. 'That feels like a big relief'

    Mike Minay
    BBC Radio 5 Live commentator at Anfield

    Wirzt has his first goal for Liverpool. It has been a long time coming since his big move in the summer. He tricked his way into the area, got it on his left boot, and with a little bit of space it's found a way past Roefs. There might have been a deflection but he doesn't care. Anfield doesn't care. That feels like a big relief.

    GOAL - Liverpool 1-1 Sunderland

    Florian Wirtz (81 mins)

    His first Liverpool goal!

    Curtis Jones wins the ball off a Sunderland player and finds £100m man Florian Wirtz. He beats two or three defenders and shoots - and it goes in via a huge deflection off Nordi Mukiele.

    Seriously! This Liverpool team are a pale shadow of the team that Klopp bequeathed to Slot. They have no pace and can’t defend. Van Dick an Salah are busted flushes. Why they let Diaz leave is anyone’s guess. It’s all ponderous tosh frankly. Bring back Jurgen…if he’d have us!

  11. SUBSTITUTION

    Liverpool 0-1 Sunderland

    Sunderland bring on Lutsharel Geertruida for Enzo le Fee.

  12. Liverpool 0-1 Sunderland

    Stephen Warnock
    Former Liverpool and Aston Villa defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Sunderland look like the better team here. Liverpool are all over the place.

  13. 'It's the wrong decision from van Dijk'

    Liverpool 0-1 Sunderland

    Steph Houghton
    Former Manchester City and England captain on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Van Dijk gives the ball away and then he just drops off. It's the wrong decision. He needs to go to the ball. Him not making the decision means that no one else knows what to do.

    If he goes to the ball then he forces Talbi out wide, whereas he gets the opportunity to shoot on goal. The way Sunderland have been playing at the moment that was more than likely going to hit the target.

  14. SUBSTITUTION

    Leeds 3-1 Chelsea

    Marc Guiu replaces Andrey Santos for Chelsea. Forward for a holding midfielder

  15. Leeds 3-1 Chelsea

    Chelsea thought Robert Sanchez was fouled for that goal by the way but the officials did not.

  16. Leeds 3-1 Chelsea

    With goals against Manchester City and Chelsea, Leeds forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin has netted in consecutive Premier League appearances for the first time since September 2024 (v Bournemouth and Aston Villa).

  17. 'Leeds' front two have beaten Chelsea up'

    Leeds 3-1 Chelsea

    Gary Neville
    Former Manchester United defender on Sky Sports

    A nightmare for [Enzo] Maresca. A dream for Leeds.

    They've kept pushing, they've always been a threat.

    Chelsea have given them encouragement after encouragement after encouragement.

    The centre-backs have been sloppy all night. You've just got to welly it up the pitch, what are you doing trying to control it in there?

    That front two for Leeds have beaten Chelsea up for 72 minutes.

    Liverpool's biggest mistake of the summer was not signing Marc Guehi. Their defence has looked awful this year.

  19. SUBSTITUTION

    Liverpool 0-1 Sunderland

    Liverpool bring on Hugo Ekitike for Alexis Mac Allister.

  20. Liverpool 0-1 Sunderland

    Mark Chapman
    Presenter on BBC Radio 5 Live

    If Liverpool lose this then there will be more pressure on Arne Slot, but he can't legislate for some of the errors his players are making.
