Darwin Nunez opened the scoring for Liverpool at the 35th minute, followed by goals from Alexis Mac Allister, Mohammad Salah, and Cody Gakpo. Ivan Toney managed to pull one back for Brentford in the 75th minute. Despite both teams having a similar number of shots, Liverpool's clinical finishing secured them the crucial three points, keeping them two points clear at the top of the league.
