Match Recap

Dominik Szoboszlai rescued Liverpool in the ninth minute of stoppage time, heading home to make it 2-2 and deny Newcastle what would have been a first Premier League win over the Reds in their last three meetings. The hosts had twice forced their way ahead: Anthony Elanga struck inside five minutes to set a furious early tone at St. James' Park, and after Cody Gakpo pulled Liverpool level on 55, Joe Willock immediately restored the Magpies' lead two minutes later. That double-lead pattern suggested Newcastle were ready to end a run of two straight losses to this opponent. Instead, Liverpool absorbed the pressure and found Szoboszlai in the chaos of added time. The Hungarian's finish, nine minutes deep into stoppage time, is exactly the kind of goal that splits a stadium in two, half the crowd still rising, the other half frozen. Find that moment at the end of the highlights reel.
