Liverpool secured a 2-2 draw against Newcastle United at St James' Park on Sunday in the opening match of the Premier League season. Dominik Szoboszlai scored a penalty in the 99th minute of stoppage time to equalize after Lewis Hall fouled debutant Victor Munoz in the box. The decision was confirmed by VAR. Newcastle took the lead in the fifth minute through Anthony Elanga, who scored after a pass from William Osula. Cody Gakpo equalized for Liverpool in the 55th minute with a shot from approximately 20 to 25 yards. Joe Willock restored Newcastle's lead shortly after with a goal following a quick counter attack. The match marked the managerial debuts of Andoni Iraola for Liverpool and Matthias Jaissle for Newcastle. Alexander Isak, who joined Liverpool from Newcastle, was booed by the home crowd during the game. The encounter took place amid a tribute to the late Kevin Keegan. While some reports focused on the dramatic nature of the late equalizer, others highlighted Liverpool's defensive struggles against counter attacks and a perceived lack of creativity in their play.
