LATE DARWIZ NUNEZ WINNER : Matchday 27 Premier League

In our matchday 27 top 3 matches article, we predicted that Nottingham Forest were going to pull up a surprise and hold Liverpool to a draw at the City ground. This prediction was going to come through only for  Darwin Nunez to take matters into his own hands with a last minute winner courtesy of a header from an  Alexis Mac Allister cross.

This was one of the finest moments in the premier league for Darwin Nunez, a player who has severally been roasted as a wasteman due to the number of chances he has missed in his premier league career.

When you look at Liverpool, you cannot fail to praise the defensive partnership of Virgil Van Dijk and  Ibrahima Konaté. The two have been one of the reasons why Liverpool have flourished despite their  plethora of injuries. In the last 3 games, Liverpool have 3 clean sheets.

The late Darwin Nunez winner puts pressure on Man city, who today (Sunday, March 3rd, 6, pm ) face Man U in the much awaited Manchester derby and Arsenal who play away at Sheffield united on Monday night ( March 4th, 11 pm )

Below is the current state of the premier league table:
Liverpool open a 5 point gap over 3rd placed Arsenal and a 4 point gap over 2nd placed Man city.
