Liverpool marked an emotional day at Anfield with a hard-fought Premier League victory over Wolves, as Florian Wirtz scored his first goal for the club amid tributes to the late Diogo Jota.
Goals from Ryan Gravenberch and Wirtz in quick succession before half-time gave Arne Slot’s side control, and although Wolves pulled one back through Santiago Bueno early in the second half, Liverpool held on to secure a third straight league win and extend their unbeaten run to seven matches in all competitions.
The match was framed by poignant moments of remembrance, including Jota’s sons leading the teams out and fans from both clubs uniting in song, while Wolves’ search for a first league win of the season continued.
Final score: Liverpool 2-1 Wolves.
