Liverpool Vs Chelsea: Bitter Rivals Settle For Frustrating Draw; Slot Booed By Anfield Crowd

Amid Anfield boos, directed at Liverpool boss Arne Slot, of course, Chelsea stopped the rot after six successive league defeats. But the 1-1 draw on matchday 36 of the English Premier League 2025-26 severely dented their hopes of playing UEFA Champions League football next season. The Blues conceded an early goal, with Ryan Gravenberch producing a sixth-minute stunner. The visitors from London, thanks to a fortuitous Enzo Fernandez goal, found the equaliser 10 minutes before half-time, and they even enjoyed a good spell in the ceremonial Merseyside. Yet, all they had was one point. In the same breath, the defending champions will rue the missed chances, including hitting the woodwork, twice. The Saturday display evidently left the fans disappointed. For now, Liverpool sit fourth with 59 points, ahead of Aston Villa and Brentford, both with one game in hand, while Chelsea are ninth.
