Liverpool turn the match around to win 2-1

Liverpool came from behind to beat Brentford 2-1 at Gtech Community Stadium in the Premier League on 17 October 2026. Keane Lewis-Potter opened the scoring before Victor Muñoz and Alexander Isak completed the turnaround. Published on 18 October in Malaysia, this is a confirmed result report, not a preview.

The decisive sequence

  • Before half-time: Lewis-Potter headed Brentford in front.
  • First-half stoppage time: Yehor Yarmoliuk was sent off for violent conduct.
  • 62 minutes: Muñoz equalised.
  • 70 minutes: Isak scored Liverpool's winner.
  • Added time: Vitaly Janelt received a second yellow card, leaving Brentford with nine players at the finish.

Isak's return is now confirmed

Liverpool's official report confirms that Isak and Dominik Szoboszlai returned to the starting line-up. Isak then supplied the winning goal. The earlier draft's uncertainty about his availability no longer applies to this match report.

MPP88.com editorial view: keep the red cards in order

The equaliser and winner came while Brentford were playing with ten men. Their second dismissal occurred in added time; it would be misleading to describe the whole match as Liverpool facing nine opponents. This observation concerns the confirmed event sequence, not an unverified medical assessment or a prediction about future fixtures.
