Liverpool defeated Ipswich Town 2-0

Liverpool started the meeting at Portman Road between the two clubs, which spent a total of 450 million pounds on transfers this summer, very quickly with Alexander Isak's two goals in the first 9 minutes. The Swedish football player, who entered the penalty area with passes from Cody Gakpo in the 6th and 9th minutes, defeated goalkeeper Kjell Scherpen from the corners he covered and put his team ahead 2-0.

Liverpool continued to attack the goal of the home team, who had difficulty leaving the half-field and made critical ball losses. In the 23rd minute, Dominik Szoboszlai's hard shot from in front of the penalty area was deflected by goalkeeper Scherpen at the last minute.

In the 30th minute, Abdul Fatawu's cross from the right side into the penalty area was headed by Leif Davis, who rose well at the back post, but the ball narrowly went out.

Ipswich Town, who could not get the desired performance from their new transfer Exequiel Palacios and Julio Ensico in the forward end against their opponent who played an effective game in the first half, tried to score with shots from in front of the penalty area in the second half, but failed to pass goalkeeper Alisson Becker.

Liverpool recovered defensively compared to the first two matches in the league, which ended in a 2-2 draw, and carried the advantage of the early goals to the end of the match, leaving the field with three points.

Liverpool remembered the victory

Liverpool, which had not won 6 matches in the Premier League since last season, achieved its first victory under the management of its new coach Andoni Iraola.

Liverpool, which lost to Manchester United and Aston Villa and drew with Chelsea and Brentford in the last 4 weeks of last season, started this season with draws against Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest.

Defeat after 18 matches at Portman Road

Ipswich Town, undefeated for 18 matches at the 30 thousand-seat Portman Road Stadium, left the field with a defeat against Liverpool.

Ipswich Town, which was unbeaten in 17 matches in the Championship last season, defeated Sunderland 2-1 in its first match at home this season.

Effective start to the season from Gakpo

Gakpo, who stayed in Liverpool because he wanted to connect with the players of Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur but could not be replaced, made a significant contribution to his team's scoring load in the 3 weeks of the league.

The Dutch football player, who scored for Newcastle United in the first week, passed one goal in the Nottingham Forest match and two goals against Ipswich Town in the second week.

Throw-in tension between Araujo and Mac Allister

In the 55th minute of the match, the shot changed hands in the Liverpool half-field because Araujo did not take the throw-in within 5 seconds. Thereupon, his teammate Alexis Mac Allister reacted to the Uruguayan football player.

The tension between the two continued for a short time after the home team's attack ended.

Barcola had a chance in the last half hour

Bradley Barcola, whom Liverpool signed from Paris Saint Germain for £123 million, replaced Isak in the 64th minute.

The 24-year-old French football player appeared on the field for the first time in his new team's uniform.
