Early in the game, Newcastle pressed Liverpool, led by Callum Wilson.
Wilson made a sharp cross in the 2nd minute of the first half, and 10 minutes later, he penetrated the left side of the goal area and tried to shoot, but Fabinho saved it.
Liverpool, which gradually regained its leadership, launched an attack.
However, in the 34th minute of the first half, Muhammad Salach’s left-footed shot was deflected by the opposing goalkeeper’s hand, and Roberto Firminu’s header for the first half of the extra time was blocked by the goalkeeper.
In the 9th minute corner kick in the second half of Liverpool, Sadio Manet’s header hit the net next to the goal, and in the 21st minute, Salach’s shot went out of the goal and swallowed up regret.
After that, he looked for opportunities several times, but he was interrupted by Newcastle’s defense against the iron wall.
Liverpool were slightly ahead of the ball share and number of shots, but could not shake the net.
