EPL: Liverpool Survive Late Scare To Beat Wolves 2-1

Reds Extend Impressive Run with Gritty Anfield Victory Over Rock-Bottom Wanderers.

The great streak lives on! Liverpool made it another three points with a tense 2-1 victory over bottom-of-the-table Wolverhampton Wanderers at a rocking Anfield on December 27, 2025.

The Reds exploded into life just before halftime with two goals in as many minutes: Ryan Gravenberch opened the scoring in the 41st minute (assist: Jeremie Frimpong), before summer signing Florian Wirtz doubled the lead in the 42nd with a fine finish assisted by Hugo Ekitiké, his long-awaited first Premier League goal.

Wolves pulled one back early in the second half through Santiago Bueno (51′), and the visitors threatened an unlikely equalizer in a nervy finish. But Alisson Becker and the defense held firm to secure the win despite a familiar second-half dip.

With key stars like Mohamed Salah away at AFCON 2025, young talents and new arrivals stepped up under Arne Slot, extending Liverpool’s unbeaten run and keeping the pressure on the teams above them in a thrilling title race.

Anfield was electric from start to finish – the Kop in full voice as the Reds grind out another vital result against a stubborn Wolves side desperate for points.

What a way to close out 2025! The momentum is building – You’ll Never Walk Alone!
