Alexander Isak scored Liverpool’s winning goal in their 2-1 victory over Brentford despite a fiercely contested finish after Yehor Yarmoliuk and Vitaly Janelt were sent off. The Swedish striker, returning from injury, scored his fifth goal of the season, according to Citizen.

Alexander Isak scored Liverpool’s decisive goal in their 2-1 win over Brentford on Saturday in the eighth round of the English Premier League. The Swedish striker scored his fifth goal of the season after Victor Muñoz’s equaliser, according to Citizen.

Brentford opened the scoring through Keane Lewis-Potter before Yehor Yarmoliuk was shown a straight red card for headbutting Jeremy Jacquet just before half-time. Reduced to nine players after a second dismissal, the London side eventually succumbed to Liverpool. Isak said his team still had a lot of progress to make.
