In the 81st minute, Florian Wirtz dribbled through a swarm of Sunderland defenders before unleashing a decisive shot past the opposing goalkeeper. The Anfield crowd erupted as they watched the German midfielder quench his goal drought after 14 rounds in the Premier League.
However, the Premier League organizers took away the joy of the 125 million euro star, when they announced that it was an own goal by Nordi Mukiele. Accordingly, Wirtz has not contributed to Liverpool in the Premier League, when the season has passed nearly half way.

Wirtz's missed goal helped Liverpool salvage a point at home against newcomers Sunderland. Earlier, Virgil Van Dijk's wrong pass allowed Moroccan Chemsdine Talbi to fire a dangerous long-range shot past Alisson Becker.
In a difficult time, hope was placed on Alexander Isak's shoulders but the 140 million euro striker had a lackluster day. The former Newcastle star did not have a single shot on target during the entire 90 minutes and was given a 6.1 rating by Flashscore, the lowest on the field.
1-1 was the final score. Sunderland maintained their good record against Liverpool, losing only 1 of their last 4 meetings with their Merseyside rivals. This result left both the "Black Cats" and "Red Brigade" stuck outside the top 4 with 23 and 22 points respectively.
