After a lackluster performance where Mohamed Salah missed key opportunities, he redeemed himself by converting a crucial penalty in the 95th minute. This goal sealed the victory for Liverpool and showcased Salah's ability to rise to the occasion even after a challenging game.

With new signing Alexander Isak absent from the squad, Liverpool struggled to create clear-cut chances in the attacking third. The team lacked sharpness and creativity, leading to a toothless display for most of the match. The absence of a clinical finisher was evident as Liverpool managed only four shots on target throughout the game.

Despite facing relentless pressure from Liverpool, Burnley's defence, led by Martin Dubravka, put up a resilient display. The backline thwarted numerous attempts on goal and frustrated Liverpool's attackers for the majority of the game. Burnley's defensive performance nearly earned them a well-deserved point until the late penalty drama unfolded.

As the match approached a goalless draw, a dramatic turn of events saw Burnley's Lesley Ugochukwu receive a red card late in the game. The subsequent handball by Hannibal Mejbri gifted Liverpool a lifeline, which Salah capitalized on to secure a thrilling victory in stoppage time. Despite a lackluster performance, Liverpool once again showcased their resilience and ability to snatch late wins.
