Liverpool's title hopes suffer Hammer blow with draw
The Straits Times|April 28, 2024
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp could not hide his disappointment as his side's slim English Premier League title hopes faded further on April 27, when Michail Antonio's late header earned West Ham United a deserved point with a 2-2 home draw.

"Very disappointed, obviously," the German said on TNT Sport, looking dejected.

"I think everyone can see that only one team win the game, and that is us with the chances we created, with the possession we had, with all the things we did.

"It was a tough one at the end of four games in a 10-day period." The Reds, reeling from a 2-0 loss at Everton in the Merseyside derby on April 24, again conceded first when Jarrod Bowen nodded home shortly before half-time, his 20th goal of the season in his 200th game for the Hammers.

Klopp's men levelled three minutes after the restart through Andy Robertson before the ugliest of own goals, attributed to goalkeeper Alphonse Areola, put them ahead after 65 minutes.

But Antonio ensured the hosts took something from the game when he met Bowen's cross with a powerful header in the 77th minute to share the points.
