Darwin Núñez's Late Goals Propel Liverpool to Key Win Over Brentford

The Uruguayan striker's stoppage-time double ends Liverpool's winless streak and strengthens their Premier League title bid.

Darwin Núñez scored twice in stoppage time to secure Liverpool's 2-0 victory against Brentford, ending a run of two consecutive draws.
The win keeps Liverpool seven points clear at the top of the Premier League, with manager Arne Slot emphasizing the team's resilience and depth.
Liverpool dominated the match with 37 shots, the highest by an away team in Premier League history, but struggled to convert chances until Núñez's late heroics.
Brentford's defense, led by goalkeeper Mark Flekken, held firm for most of the game, with 15 blocks and several key saves to deny Liverpool's attack.
Manager Thomas Frank praised Liverpool as the 'best team in the world,' while Slot highlighted the importance of substitutes like Harvey Elliott, who contributed to both goals.
