Tactical Analysis: Liverpool vs. Chelsea

Last Sunday, Liverpool and Chelsea matched up for a pivotal match, one that would have dire implications for Liverpool's title chances and Chelsea's top four hopes.

This game was an absolute cracker, with elements of absolutely everything that make a football match great – good defensive organisation, superb attacking play, missed chances, last-ditch tackles, slaloming dribbles and of course, a spectacular finish by a player gradually getting back to his best.

To top it off, there was also a Steven Gerrard-esque slip from Andrew Robertson, but Liverpool weren’t to be denied this time, as they recorded a 2-0 win over Maurizio Sarri’s side.
