Liverpool secured a crucial 4-1 victory over Luton, with Cody Gakpo playing a pivotal role in the win. However, it was an unintentionally humorous moment involving Gakpo that had fans in stitches. Gakpo, who scored Liverpool’s second goal, found himself in a comical situation when he “kicked the wrong ball.”
As he attempted a shot, Luton’s Amari’i Bell intervened, leading to Gakpo accidentally striking Bell in a sensitive area. Fans were quick to joke about the mishap, with one quipping, “He has kicked the wrong ball.”Despite the light-hearted moment, Bell’s discomfort was evident as he went down momentarily before resuming play. Liverpool’s victory, with goals from Virgil van Dijk, Gakpo, Luis Diaz, and Harvey Elliott, sees them sitting at the top of the table with 60 points.
However, both Manchester City and Arsenal, trailing by four and five points respectively, have games in hand. Luton, on the other hand, finds themselves in a relegation battle, tied with Everton on 20 points and sitting 18th in the table.
