The Reds achieved their sixth victory of the season, maintaining their position at the top of the table with a narrow lead of just one point over their rivals. Arne Slot, Reds boss, expressed the challenges of their recent matches and future prospects.
Arne Slot said, “The fixtures are difficult, but I have felt how difficult Wolves and Palace are away. It is good that we have won these games and it is up to us to show ourselves in the big games.”
After their victorious match in South London, Jota, a key player, took to Instagram to celebrate the victory. Jota brought out a new goal celebration, intriguing fans as they speculated about its meaning due to his known fandom for the FIFA video game series.
One fan said on X (formerly Twitter), “Jota did the Rodman FIFA celebration,” while another added, “Jota doing FC 25 ladder celebration. The guy loves FIFA.” A third fan commented, “Of course, this guy’s celebration was about FC Pro Ladder,” and a fourth concluded, “Jota already told FIFA to change his celebration!”
In an update on the team’s lineup, it was announced that the team’s primary goalkeeper would not be participating in several upcoming games. Instead, a debut was made by a Czech Republic international. Due to a muscular injury, goalkeeper Alisson will miss several games after the October international break. Vitezslav Jaros made his debut, replacing Alisson in the second half, stepping in for the unavailable backup, Caoimhin Kelleher.
