🚨 ABSOLUTE chaos as Leeds score stoppage time equaliser in six-goal thriller vs Liverpool
Saturday, 6 December, 2025
[Pictures from Sky Sports]Liverpool dropped points again with a crazy 3-3 draw against Leeds United at Elland Road on Saturday evening.After a goalless first half, this game exploded into life in the second 45 minutes, with a quickfire double from Hugo Ekitike make it 1-0 in the 48th minute and 2-0 in the 50th minute.At this point, the Liverpool of last season probably would have run away with the game, but all is clearly not well in this Reds side, as they looked highly suspect at the back again.Leeds punish sloppy Liverpool defending to fight backFirst, a Dominic Calvert-Lewin penalty breathed life into the game in the 73rd minute, and just two minutes later the two sides were level.Anton Stach found himself in far too much room in the penalty area as he fired in the first Leeds equaliser of the night, with pretty much everyone in that Liverpool back line to blame.Dominik Szoboszlai put Liverpool back in front as he finished well from a nice passing move to make it 3-2 in the 80th minute, but Leeds wouldn’t give up, and eventually their persistence paid off.Deep into stoppage time, more poor LFC defending was punished as Leeds made it 3-3 through Ao Tanaka, who also scored in the midweek win over Chelsea.What next for Liverpool?Liverpool stay 8th in the Premier League, ten points off league leaders Arsenal.They’ve conceded a staggering 24 goals in 15 league games, that’s more than 15th place Fulham and just one fewer than relegation strugglers Nottingham Forest.That is at least three games without a defeat for the Reds, but it’s two draws in a row and just one win their last six.Next up for Arne Slot’s side is an away game against Inter Milan in the Champions League, and then Brighton at home and Tottenham away in the Premier League before Christmas.Can Slot turn this around? Do you see him keeping his job for much longer? Let us know your thoughts in the comments! This is a public episode.
