Liverpool escaped defeat in chaotic moments at the end of the match

Liverpool drew 1-1 with Sunderland in round 14 of the Premier League on the morning of December 4, but the match could have ended in a worse scenario if not for Federico Chiesa's unbelievable save.

The moment Chiesa saved Liverpool at the end of the match.

In the final minutes, as Liverpool went all out in search of the winner, their defensive structure all but disappeared. The situation started from a set piece, which left both Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate high up the pitch and unable to retreat.

Federico Chiesa, who had just been brought on to play as a number 9, became the deepest player on Liverpool's side. However, he did not keep close track of Wilson Isidor, the Sunderland striker who quietly made his way behind the home team's defence.

Goalkeeper Roefs immediately recognized the gap and made an accurate long pass. Isidor escaped to face Alisson in front of the stunned audience at Anfield.

Alisson forced the Sunderland striker to move to the right, narrowing the shooting angle, but the danger remained. At the moment when it seemed Liverpool were certain to concede a goal, Chiesa suddenly rushed back at top speed and managed to clear the ball right on the goal line.

That moment saved Liverpool from a bitter defeat. They had lost their concentration as they searched for a goal, a mistake that had cost them many times this season. This time, luck and Chiesa's individual effort saved them by a hair's breadth.

The 1-1 draw still left Liverpool disappointed in the race for the top group, but not losing to Sunderland, and surviving thanks to a save from his own striker, was a clear warning to manager Arne Slot about the inherent flaws in the way the team operates.
