EPL 2022-23: Curtis Jones Scores Brace To Keep Liverpool's Top 4 Aspirations Alive - In Pics

Liverpool made progress in their hunt for a UEFA Champions League spot with a 3-0 drubbing of Leicester City. Curtis Jones scored a brace, while Trent Alexander-Arnold converted a free kick to seal the match for The Reds. Leicester had the crowd's backing at the King Power Stadium, but they needed more than that to eject themselves from the relegation zone. However, at the end of the evening, they found themselves pushed even deeper, as the away team at least confirmed its Europa League place with the victory. Liverpool now have two matches left, one against Aston Villa and another with the already relegated Southampton. Manchester United, who are in fourth place in the league table, have three games left. Newcastle, sitting in third, too, have three to play. Liverpool's seventh consecutive win might have come for them a bit too late, but it keeps them in contention to win a title in Europe next year.
