I didn’t want the goalkeeper to set himself so I just took it early. “They were pushing forward and I was looking for space in behind. We knew we would have to suffer but our plan was to soak it up and take chances, so I am happy with the point. Crystal Palace completed a capital double for Liverpool, following Fulham in taking the lead against them and two points off them.

Liverpool came from a goal down against Crystal Palace to earn a draw courtesy of Luis Díaz, but Darwin Núñez will get the headlines.
It earned him the roaring approval of Anfield. It could not quite yield a winner, but it was an admirable display. However, the fact is that there was a spotlight on the right-back. But as Liverpool fought for a way back into the game, he was a handful for defenders in all the wrong ways. By the end of the half, he could have had a hattrick — and almost certainly should have had at least one. Liverpool have occasionally struggled to carve out clear-cut opportunities against mid-table sides, and that was certainly not the problem here, with Núñez undoubtedly a handful. Straight from the off, it was clear what a difference Núñez can make to this Liverpool attack. Cutting in from the left, he jinked past his man, unleashing a curling effort towards the right corner. Crystal Palace were not given a moment to settle into the contest, and spent the vast majority of the opening exchanges on the back foot. It was far more reminiscent of the old fast starts under Klopp. More often than not, that will be rewarded. There were a few personnel changes, but the biggest difference was in attitude. Klopp was clearly dissatisfied with the lacklustre showing against Fulham, and was never going to accept a repeat performance. It could easily have been more, with Liverpool dominating even after being reduced to 10, but the winner proved elusive.

Match report and free highlights as Darwin Nunezs full debut for Liverpool sees him sent off for a headbutt on Joachim Andersen but Luis Diazs goal rescues ...
It was crazy, it was like there was a witch in the building. It was a really good team performance, I'm really happy with the team." We have to use the next week to maybe bring one or two back. Whether inexperience, frustration, or both, his red card was so rash and though the supporters in the Kop chanted his name, it was a costly error. It's a moment of madness. It's a proper butt, Andersen will feel that. His goal was brilliant, collecting the ball out wide on the left before cutting inside beyond three Palace defenders and curling his shot into the far corner of the net. Had Zaha found the other side of the post late on, Patrick Vieira would have felt it was a deserved win. Draws are defeats now as Manchester City set the bar so high. But, down to 10 men, there were gaps for Palace to exploit. Zaha might even have doubled the advantage soon after when eluding Phillips once more but his heavy touch allowed Alisson to smother. Liverpool had dominated the first half an hour but Zaha's breakaway strike after excellent work by Eberechi Eze shocked them.

Liverpool's stuttering start to the Premier League campaign continued with another draw at home to Crystal Palace on Monday night. A week on from their 2-2 draw ...
6/10 Nathaniel Clyne – Against his former side, Clyne proved for than a match for Diaz early doors, the quietest member of Liverpool’s front three in the first half. Almost scored a late winner, but this goes down as a below-par night for the Egyptian. 5/10 A timely contribution, and then he did the defensive work to stop Zaha in his tracks during what looked like another counter. Darwin Nunez – A tetchy Klopp said tonight was the night to hand Nunez a first start for Liverpool “because we have no other striker,” but after that awkward pre-match interview, it was clear Nunez would be a target for Alexander-Arnold and Robertson throughout the match. James Milner – Started and captained the side with Jordan Henderson on the bench, and fired an early chance over inside a minute. 6/10 Could not prevent the Palace forward from breaking the deadlock, while Zaha almost scored again before the break when once more losing Phillips and forcing a save from Alisson. Replaced by Gomez in the second half. 6/10 6/10 He could not have had a better view.” “That’s a proper butt to the underside of the nose.
Liverpool vs Crystal Palace recap: The Reds suffered another setback to start the Premier League season, as they battled back to draw 1-1 at Anfield.
It should be said that for as much as Liverpool were in control of the ball, Crystal Palace were quite comfortable in control of where the Reds were allowed to possess it. Liverpool will be leaning on Virgil van Dijk at the back as the Reds deal with some early injuries to defense and midfield. Not that it’s really that simple or straightforward, of course, unless Patrick Vieira is your manager, at which point it is now expected of Crystal Palace. The Eagles hardly had a sniff of the ball, let alone the opposition penalty area, in the opening half hour, and yet they were as sharp and quick as could be when Eberechi Eze had his one opportunity to send Zaha in on goal. At the time of Zaha’s opener, Liverpool had attempted 133 passes inside the opposition half; Crystal Palace had tried just 17. Man City led Liverpool by double-digit points almost midway through last season before taking the title race down to the final minute of the season, but it would be unwise to count on the two-time defending champions to slip up in such fashion again. They fell behind the newly promoted Cottagers twice last week, and again on Monday they found themselves behind after conceding the game’s first goal for a sixth straight Premier League fixture (dating back to last season). Injuries are mounting up now as well, with Nuñez likely to be suspended for three games, at the same time Diogo Jota, Ibrahima Konate, Joel Matip, Thiago Alcantara, Roberto Firmino and Curtis Jones, among other fringe players, currently unavailable.
