Bournemouth, known for their giant-killing exploits at home, having already defeated both Arsenal and Manchester City this season, proved a stern test for the league leaders.

Despite Liverpool’s dominance, Bournemouth twice hit the post and had a goal disallowed for a narrow offside call.

Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson also made a crucial save to deny Antoine Semenyo, highlighting the precariousness of Liverpool’s lead.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot acknowledged the difficulty of the encounter, praising his team’s resilience and work rate.

“Only a few [opponents] have been as tough as this,” Slot commented, emphasizing the importance of individual quality, such as Salah’s, within a strong team performance.

He also highlighted Bournemouth’s intensity and quality, acknowledging the challenge they presented.

This victory extends Liverpool’s unbeaten league run to 19 games, solidifying their position at the top of the Premier League table.

With 15 games remaining, Liverpool hold a commanding lead, though Arsenal, currently six points behind, have a game in hand.

The win comes amidst a busy period for Liverpool, who are still competing in the Champions League, FA Cup, and Carabao Cup.

Slot, reflecting on his start at the club, expressed satisfaction with the team’s progress across all competitions.

Alisson echoed his manager’s sentiments, highlighting the team’s mental fortitude and desire.

He acknowledged Bournemouth’s intensity and the high standard of the Premier League this season.
