Pushes Leicester toward relegation zone with this win
Liverpool keeps hopes alive

Liverpool plunged Leicester closer to relegation and kept alive its own chances of finishing in the top four of the English Premier League with a 3-0 win.

Curtis Jones was the unlikely scorer of the first two goals on Monday before Trent Alexander-Arnold whipped an indirect free kick into the top corner to wrap up a mismatch at King Power Stadium between teams heading in opposite directions.

For Liverpool, a seventh straight victory in an impressive end-of-season rally secured at least a spot in the Europa League and moved the fifth-placed team a point behind both Newcastle and Manchester United in the race for the final two Champions League qualification positions, behind Manchester City and Arsenal.

Liverpool has two games left - against Aston Villa at home and already-relegated Southampton away - while Newcastle and Man United have three to play.

"I don't think it's likely but if they slip, we have to be there," Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said. "Will they slip? I don't know. Will we win both games? I don't know."

For Leicester, morale could hardly be lower with its top-flight status seriously under threat just seven years after winning the league in one of the great underdog stories in the history of sports.
