Liverpool's Victory in the Premier League

The 'Reds' achieved their seventeenth consecutive victory in the Premier League, three days before facing Atletico Madrid in the Champions League Round of 16.

It was not an easy match against Norwich, as it was not until the last fifteen minutes that Mane sealed the triumph.

Norwich, backed by their supporters, resisted Liverpool's attacks and even had opportunities to take the lead on the scoreboard.

Alisson Becker made a one-on-one save against Lukas Rupp, who tried to pass it to Teemu Pukki at the last moment, but the Brazilian's hand appeared to cut off Norwich's best chance in the first half.

In the second half, Liverpool dominated and Tim Krul became the local hero for many minutes, with great saves against a spinning shot from Mohamed Salah and a close-range shot from Naby Keita.

In the midst of Liverpool's siege, Norwich even had the chance to win the match when Alexander Tettey surprised all the Reds' defenders with a low shot that hit the post.

To secure their seventeenth consecutive victory in the English championship, Liverpool needed the connection between Henderson and Mane. The English midfielder sent a long ball to the Senegalese, who controlled the ball with his right foot and finished with his left, scoring his hundredth goal in English football (75 with Liverpool and 25 with Southampton).

With a 25-point lead over Manchester City in the standings, Liverpool will now travel to Madrid to face Atletico Madrid on Tuesday at the Wanda Metropolitano.
