Liverpool moved a step closer to clinching the Premier League title as they claimed a dramatic 2-1 win over West Ham at Anfield. Arne Slot's men looked all set for a disappointing point when Luis Diaz's early opener was cancelled out by an Andy Robertson own goal with five minutes remaining. However, Virgil van Dijk stepped up to the plate, heading home in the 89th minute to move his team 13 points clear at the summit. Reds reporter David Lynch was at Anfield to witness a crucial victory for Liverpool in which they weren't at their best. He believes that is partly down to Slot's subs, though there is plenty of praise for the performances of Alisson Becker and Alexis Mac Allister.
