Liverpool Grind Out 1 – 0 Win Over Wolves

Liverpool got back on track in the league with that most sacred of virtues – a hard-fought 1 – 0 away win.

Diogo Jota returned to Molineux to score the winning goal against Wolves ahead of the international break. Liverpool have been on an awful run, culminating in a record 6 straight defeats at Anfield.

They had a respite in the Champions League, advancing against RB Leipzig last week. The win over Wolves is their second win in eight Premier League games.

Liverpool move into 6th place in the table, 5 points off of a Champions League place.

“It’s all about the result,” Jurgen Klopp said

“It was a big fight. We won three dirty points, and I’m fine with that if that’s what it takes to try to get back on track.

“We had very good moments where we should have done better offensively. Defensively the whole game was really good.

“I didn’t like the start; we weren’t active enough. But we improved a lot and defended well, and that was the main target today.

“I thought the goalie would have saved it but in the end the ball goes in, which was important for us. We got the three points, and everything was fine.

“It’s been hard for the team, but there was a lot of good news tonight and, most important, we got the three points. We want to go into the [international] break with a positive feeling and we have it.”
