The fact that Mbeumo's goal wasn't overturned

Curtis Jones is substituted for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain by Liverpool. Jones has experience scoring at the Gtech Community Stadium; in the corresponding game last year, he scored a stunning goal. Brentford increases its lead! Norgaard throws a long diagonal ball in Mbeumo's direction, and Ibrahima Konate can't handle it, 

falling to the ground as the two wrestle for it. Mbeumo scores after being given a clear shot at Alisson, The fact that Mbeumo's goal wasn't overturned for what Jurgen Klopp, Ibrahima Konate, and the rest of the Liverpool players believed to be a foul on Konate in the build-up has incensed them. Replays demonstrate that their rage is unjustified and that they are utterly irrational.

There was no foul; Mbeumo and Konate were tussling for a 50-50 ball when Konate simply couldn't hold them off and fell over, giving the Brentford striker a clear shot at goal. That was Brentford's first meaningful shot on goal in the second half, and they expertly dispatched it to likely put the game beyond Liverpool. 

The Bees gave a fantastic performance on both the front and back foot. There will be six extra minutes, Bryan Mbeumo is replaced by Sergio Canos, who tries to catch a ball Keane Lewis-Potter throws in from behind. Andy Robertson shepherds the ball back to Alisson while remaining steadfast and tenaciously defending. You do it that way, Ibrahima. 

<strong>Liverpool penalty area for Brentford once more</strong>

For Keane Lewis-Potter, Josh Dasilva plays the ball through the middle of the deck. Rico Henry crosses the ball into the Liverpool penalty area for Brentford once more, but Alisson gains possession of the ball. Despite David Raya's shout, Ben Mee hacks a Trent Alexander-Arnold cross into the Brentford penalty area from upfield. Ivan Toney, who is seated close to the Brentford dugout, gives Bryan Mbeumo a heartfelt embrace after being named the game's MVP.
