Salah missed a penalty, Liverpool lost the English Super Cup title to Crystal Palace

On the evening of August 10, Liverpool with its expensive new recruits shone, but in the end lost to Crystal Palace with a score of 2-3 after a penalty shootout (tied 2-2 in regular time), losing the FA Community Shield title.

Liverpool still have a lot of work to do before the Premier League starts.

Liverpool spent more than 265 million pounds (about 9,346 billion VND) in the summer transfer window, bringing in expensive new players such as Jeremie Frimpong, Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike. While also saying goodbye to top stars including Trent Alexander-Arnold, Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez.

Coach Arne Slot's team still maintains significant strength, even has more depth, when the key frame of last season is still there such as striker Salah, midfielders Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Gravenberch and captain Virgil van Dijk.

It was the solidity in the playing style that helped Liverpool have a strong start, 2 times quickly taking the lead against Crystal Palace with a score of 1-0 and 2-1 thanks to the goals of rookies Ekitike and Frimpong in the 4th and 21st minutes. In which, Frimpong's goal increased the score exactly in the 20th minute and 20th second, coinciding with the shirt number of the ill-fated Liverpool star Diogo Jota who passed away.

Interspersed with Liverpool's goals was Crystal Palace's equalizer 1-1, scored by striker Jean-Philippe Mateta in the 17th minute from the 11m mark.

Crystal Palace, after winning the FA Cup (beating Man City 1-0) and finishing 12th in the Premier League last season, did not have many changes to their squad as coach Oliver Glasner's team still retained its top stars so far, such as central defender Marc Guehi, strikers Jean-Philippe Mateta and Eberechi Eze.

Stability helped Crystal Palace, after a first half underdog, create an equalizer and somewhat dominate Liverpool in the second half, before shockingly finding a 2-2 equalizer in the 77th minute by Ismaila Sarr. Thereby, bringing the match to a penalty shootout. Here, before the nerve-wracking penalty shootout, Crystal Palace won 3-2 to surprisingly win the English Super Cup.

Liverpool lost on penalties, after striker Salah and midfielder Mac Allister both missed headers, allowing Crystal Palace to take advantage of the opportunity to accurately execute their kicks to win 3-2, despite two players also missing, Borna Sosa and Eberechi Eze.

Having lost the Community Shield, Liverpool clearly still have a lot of work to do before the Premier League season begins on August 16, when they will have their opening match against Bournemouth at home.
