In the 90th minute, Julio Enciso took a corner kick, and Jacob Greaves rushed forward to head the ball into the goal, helping Ipswich to pull back 1-4.

In the end, Liverpool defeated Ipswich 4-1 at Anfield. After two consecutive wins, Liverpool currently ranks first in the standings with 53 points, 6 points ahead of second-placed Arsenal.

The 25-year-old Liverpool striker Gakpo said, “I think this is a near-perfect game. We created a lot of opportunities. Although the opponent was very strong and defended very deep, which made it difficult for us to create space, we still achieved a good performance and scored 4 goals. The only regret is that we lost a goal in the end. We had hoped to keep a clean sheet. But overall, this was a very good game, so let’s keep working hard.”

"I think it was important to score early and it was great to see Soboslai score. His goal was great and it made the game more open. At half-time we said we would keep working hard to get more goals and keep clean sheets. Unfortunately, we didn't achieve that in the end."

Gakpo continued, "I am very happy to score a goal at home and in front of the fans, but the most important thing is that the team won the game, and I am very happy to contribute to this victory. In the locker room we all said that this kind of goal is the dream of every striker, and it is always a great pleasure to seize such an opportunity, so I am very satisfied with this goal."

Talking about his teammate Arnold's assist, Gakpo said, "Everyone knows that he has this passing ability, and he did it again in this game. I think it was a beautiful header, but more importantly, his cross was really outstanding."

"This is a very important game. Maybe everyone thinks we should win at home, but every game is not easy, especially at the critical moment of our championship. So we must keep working hard and keep winning games."
