Liverpool suffers fourth consecutive defeat in the Premier League: Ukrainian player Yegor Yarmolyuk leaves the match due to injury
In the 18th round of the English Premier League, reigning champions Liverpool experienced another setback, suffering their fourth consecutive league loss with a 2-3 away defeat against Brentford.
This match proved to be a difficult challenge for coach Arne Slot’s team, which is now struggling to resolve a crisis and regain winning form.
The situation was particularly concerning for Ukrainian midfielder Yegor Yarmolyuk, who started the game in the starting lineup but was forced to leave the pitch on the 29th minute due to injury.
Brentford’s goals were scored by Watara, Shadé, and Igor Tinhao, while Liverpool’s scorers were Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland.
Liverpool’s overall performance is worrying, especially considering their struggles in other tournaments – they lost 5 out of their last 6 Champions League matches.
According to the Premier League standings, Liverpool currently ranks sixth with 15 points, while Brentford is tenth with 13 points.
It is also worth noting that Yegor Yarmolyuk has been playing for Brentford’s first team since October 2023, having participated in 77 matches in the Premier League with one assist, and has made 5 appearances for the Ukrainian national team.
