Story of Brentford 3–1 Liverpool ⚽🥅
Crisis for Arne Slot!
Liverpool’s slump continues as Brentford storm to a stunning 3–1 victory at the Gtech Community Stadium — leaving the Reds’ manager under real pressure for the first time since taking charge.
The hosts came out flying once again, using their trademark long throw-ins from Kayode to cause chaos in Liverpool’s box. Dango Ouattara opened the scoring early, pouncing on a flick from Kristoffer Ajer.
Kevin Schade doubled the lead before half-time with a cool finish after a slick Mikkel Damsgaard assist, and though Milos Kerkez briefly gave Liverpool hope before the break, it wasn’t enough to spark a comeback.
In the second half, Brentford’s energy never dipped — pressing hard, fighting for every ball, and sealing the win with a third goal that sent the home fans wild.
Meanwhile, Liverpool’s defending was all over the place.
Virgil van Dijk, usually the picture of composure, endured a nightmare evening — misjudging crosses, losing duels, and looking completely rattled.
The final whistle brought boos from the travelling support and cheers of disbelief from the Brentford faithful.
Final score: Brentford 3–1 Liverpool.
A statement win for Keith Andrews’ Bees, and a major headache for Arne Slot, whose team suddenly look lost and fragile
