Comments:

League position: 16th Aston Villa had now dropped 11 points from winning positions so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. Trézéguet became the first Egyptian to score a goal in the Premier League for Villa; players from 32 nations had now scored in the competition for them (excluding own goals). 15 of the 18 goals they had now conceded so far in this Premier League season had been scored in the second-half of their games.

Comments:

League position: 1st This was the third time that Liverpool had trailed at half-time in a game in the Premier League since the start of the previous season (the other two were both at Chelsea). This was only the second time that they had won consecutive games in the Premier League when they had been trailing at half-time in both games. Sadio Mané’s goal was the Reds' 35th 90th-minute winning goal in the Premier League; ten more than any other team in the competition's history. Trent Alexander-Arnold became the 214th player to make 100 appearances for Liverpool in all competitions. [c/o LFC History]
