Premier League: Liverpool Slumps at Southampton to 1-0 Loss, Extend Blip
News 18Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl slumped to the ground, pulled down the bill of his cap, and wept after another big win for his team in the English Premier League. Liverpool has gone three games without a win after back-to-back draws against West Bromwich Albion and Newcastle and leads on only goal difference from great rival Manchester United, which has played one game fewer. Southampton is in the mix, its latest win lifting Hasenhuttl’s team to sixth place in a season when it has been in first place albeit briefly for the first time since 1988. Southampton was depleted for the game, missing the spine of its team with first-choice goalkeeper Alex McCarthy, central midfielder Oriol Romeu and striker Che Adams joining giant centre back Jannik Vestergaard on the sidelines.
