They are closing in on the title! Here is how the Premier League table looks after Liverpool's comeback

This Saturday, March 8, the match between the top of the Premier League table and the bottom of the championship was played. Liverpool welcomed Southampton to Anfield and managed a great comeback to add 3 golden points, which allow them to extend the gap at the top.

On paper, Saturday's game seemed like a simple formality for Liverpool . The league leaders were hosting the worst team in the league, who have only won two games so far this season. However, the game turned out to be more complicated than expected.

A mistake between Virgil van Dijk and Alisson Becker allowed the visitors to take the lead just before the break. The nerves were growing at Anfield, but a goal from Darwin Núñez with an assist from Luis Díaz and two penalty goals from Mohamed Salah settled the result.

With a 3-1 home win, Liverpool are 16 points ahead of Arsenal in the Premier League table. It is important to note that the Gunners have two games in hand. If they complete both games in hand, the gap would be 10 points.
