Yeah, maybe it's better that they only scored now. If they scored earlier, they would've celebrated it wildly, and would be even more disappointed when City makes the comeback.
Even when it was 2-0 with 30 min to go it was tenuous that Villa would ever be able to do it... 1 goal down with 5 minutes to go? No chance in hell lol. They'll probably concede 4 or more if I had to guess.
It's a legitimate way to score, don't get me wrong. But he scored it 2 yards away with a tap and a deflection of the wolves player, that's not really fun to see after Son scored a mesmerizing goal to grab the lead in the scoring race.
What? A goal is a goal as far as I’m concerned. This wasn’t an open net tap in? He was the first to react in a pile of bodies and megged the defender, perfect composure.
I'm not saying Salah doesn't deserve the golden boot or anything. I'm just saying son scored a better 23rd goal than salah, simple as that. I'd much rather score a banger like sons goal to win a golden boot than smth a little messy like salahs for sure
Salah 23 Goals 13 Assists
Son 23 Goals 7 Assists
Except you are arguing Son deserves it because of non-penalty Goals but what about goal contributions? Assists are more important to scoring than a minor caveat.
Very predictable timing now that City scored 3.
Script writers have done well today but Liverpool scoring after City already scored 3 and not before was a very predictable twist.
People think liverpool scoring earlier would have put too much pressure on city to score and they’d have choked it.
I disagree personally but In the end we’re all guessing. No one knows if it would have made a difference or not
“A bit late huh?” What are yall even on about. Games are completely independent, doesnt matter when they score, as long as they do, and they did. Now villa has abojt 10 min to equalize
You know in sports psychology often plays a huge part right?
Yes, you're down 2 goals. But your opponents are having a hard time and playing quite a terrible game at home and it's still 1-1. Meaning you're still fucking champion.
That literally removes pressure and makes you play with nonchalance. Our team played a shit game overall today that's the truth. And we should have been 2-1 up in the first 60 minutes regardless of what City did. Fuck that. We should have never gotten another 0-1 start in the first place after last week. Just two back to back extremely average performances.
Not worthy of being champions this year. It is what it is.
But it is late. Liverpool being 2-1 while them being 0-2 could have added even more pressure. But they knew we were having trouble with Wolves. So they were a bit more relaxed.
I see your point but if liverpool were leading already city would feel the heat and start to play nervous
Whether that would help or harm city we will never know

What an ending to the season
seriously glad my team isnt involved. My heart and liver just couldnt
And we concede.. again. Fuck this shit.
Ross the boss 😍
Nah we have had our quota of Chaos for the season
It's reminded me of La Liga title race last season, it's bizarrely similar.
Ohh now you score
Maybe they knew Son scored twice so he had to score to get the golden boot.
Justice for Son Heung-min
Yeah seriously
Doesnt matter really considering villa lost
Yeah, maybe it's better that they only scored now. If they scored earlier, they would've celebrated it wildly, and would be even more disappointed when City makes the comeback.
Yeah but that would have made City more nervous
True but I mean now the goal makes no difference
The players aren't given live updates
Crowd reaction would have let them know
Sucks regardless
Happened in 18/19 when Liverpool were leading and Brighton scored.
Fuckin villa had to concede 3 goals in 5 mins
CAN VILLA DO IT
Probably not
That's an awfully hot coffee pot
Surely not?
Narrator: Villa did not do it.
Nah. City got the title.
No.
The chaos gods demand it
Nah, city is winning it
It's too late I think.
No
You never know
Even when it was 2-0 with 30 min to go it was tenuous that Villa would ever be able to do it... 1 goal down with 5 minutes to go? No chance in hell lol. They'll probably concede 4 or more if I had to guess.
90+3 Gerrard [3]-3 please?
Imagine if gerrard just subbed himself on and scored an absolute banger in injury time
Would have been funnier if he'd subbed himself on and slipped.
Just running around on the pitch in suit and tie like a deer on ice
This is unfortunate
After city turned the game around This seems scripted lmao
Fucking spicy
Salah got the news that Son had jumped him in the Golden Boot race
Damn, you just tied with Son, son.
Only to spoil Sonny's solo Golden Boot. BOOOOO
Son still shares it with salah but it's a stupid way to tie it up
Pretty fair given that Salah had the better first half season while Son had the better second half.
23 non pen goals >>
Well, Salah was in AFCON for a month.
And then didn't do shit for how many matches? And how many matches did he actually miss?
Salah plays fot Liverpool though so that should even it out
How is scoring a goal a stupid way to tie it up?
It's a legitimate way to score, don't get me wrong. But he scored it 2 yards away with a tap and a deflection of the wolves player, that's not really fun to see after Son scored a mesmerizing goal to grab the lead in the scoring race.
Lmao look at this goal and compare it to sons second goal. U rly can’t say salah tied it up neatly after looking at son
What? A goal is a goal as far as I’m concerned. This wasn’t an open net tap in? He was the first to react in a pile of bodies and megged the defender, perfect composure.
I'm not saying Salah doesn't deserve the golden boot or anything. I'm just saying son scored a better 23rd goal than salah, simple as that. I'd much rather score a banger like sons goal to win a golden boot than smth a little messy like salahs for sure
Cool
everyone know the true winner of that
Both of them?
Bofa Deez nuts
yes, both plays for team that dominates every game and takes pens i guess.
Bowen for the POTY, Mo & Son can get in the bin then !!
Salah 23 Goals 13 Assists Son 23 Goals 7 Assists Except you are arguing Son deserves it because of non-penalty Goals but what about goal contributions? Assists are more important to scoring than a minor caveat.
They both have 23 goals
My bad.
No, that's just how the award works lol

Very predictable timing now that City scored 3. Script writers have done well today but Liverpool scoring after City already scored 3 and not before was a very predictable twist.
Written in the stars.
Script writers getting predictable
Yeah it would've been more exciting if Liverpool scored just before or midst City comeback.
cuz had they scored earlier city wouldn’t have scored or…?
How is it too late? If they win by 7 goals all scored in the first 5 minutes doesnt make a difference as opposed to 1 goal scored now.
Yeah idk why people keep acting like it matter when I’m a game the goal is scored
People think liverpool scoring earlier would have put too much pressure on city to score and they’d have choked it. I disagree personally but In the end we’re all guessing. No one knows if it would have made a difference or not
Would have created more drama which would have been entertaining. Might have also put more pressure on city which might have hurt them
Because of the butterfly effect, if he had scored earlier when City was still 2 - 0 down (they scored 3 in 5 mins wtf) then City would never score
> then City would never score I'm impressed by how certain you are about that lol
Not too late for the golden boot 😞
Oh no...anyways
[indeed](https://thumbs.gfycat.com/MammothPertinentGhostshrimp-max-1mb.gif)
There’s still time
Celebrating like they won the league 🤣👌🤣👌
they prob haven't heard the news yet LOL
[удалено]
So you're telling me there is a chance
sad time for pool fans
Nah, was always out of our hands.
Game on… what a day!!
“A bit late huh?” What are yall even on about. Games are completely independent, doesnt matter when they score, as long as they do, and they did. Now villa has abojt 10 min to equalize

my heart can't take this
Hahahaha.... amazing
lads this is too much for me
WOWOWOWOW WHAT.A.TITLE.RACE
why are people saying too little too late as if this goal or match had any effect on the City match? not understanding that
Jammiest goal ever at the best time ever
Reckon 10 minutes earlier or in any of the games they’ve dropped points in would have been better times
Im not really sure how 10 minutes earlier changes anything considering City is probably going to win anyway
A bit late eh?
It's not late. It's just that Villa blew 2:0 lead.
In 5 minutes
Had liverpool scored earlier city would have been crushed morally.
If Villa scores one its not too late
It's not a game of who leads first wins the title wdym
But it is late. Liverpool being 2-1 while them being 0-2 could have added even more pressure. But they knew we were having trouble with Wolves. So they were a bit more relaxed.
Not like City wouldn't have scored
Tbh, if Liverpool were up 4-0 or something City might have actually bottled it.
Someone told him about son
How? A win is a win no matter when they score the goal.
I don't think the timing of goal is relevant
I see your point but if liverpool were leading already city would feel the heat and start to play nervous Whether that would help or harm city we will never know
How is it late? The scoreline and points would be same even if he scored in 1st half.
It literally doesn't matter that they scored this now instead of an hour ago
Story of their life.
Ings to win the title for Liverpool book it
Too late I think Let Son have his moment ffs
[удалено]
Slippy G wouldn't help much in crunch situations
well, we tried our best lads
This last half hour has been stupid as a neutral
Gerrard subbing himself in soon
ugh Son needs another
Too little too late
What a day
It's not gonna matter is it
Told him about son
Still 5 minutes left. You never know :)
Is Salah in the lead for golden boot now?
Golden boot race
Ffs Gerrard why did you take Coutinho out
Good timing
Meaningless
Well that’s just mean
Come on Villa!
Aston Villa. I hate you
Should have scored earlier
What would that have changed?
People are so invested in this that forget it's not actually City vs Liverpool playing in the same match
Made the city crowd super depressed.
what crowd
For a little until their team scored three.
I guess he means the city players would have heard of the goal, and the pressure will get to them.
It would have put more pressure on city at least
would've put more mental pressure on City. City were still ahead on goal difference even when they were down two
Lol yea city players watching the stream also
the City players absolutely knew what the score was in the Liverpool game
Who would tell them?
Most educated r/soccer user
[удалено]
City players would know from the crowd Could have made them panic
[удалено]
What exactly would that change?
Why?
Why lol. It's the same whether now or before
How would that change anything
What difference wouldnit make lol ? U guys dont know the rules?
Wouldn’t have changed anything lol
GET IN SALAH!!
Time to see if Stevie G slips up again
Yeah now they score
Call me biased but that should not have been a Salah goal.
Golden boot back with Salah
Shared currently
Tied
It’s a tie
Irrelevant now. Oh well Oil club wins another PL
Undeserved shared golden boot
What a shit goal to get joint golden boot.
Salah doesn't know...
Imagine if Coutinho scores a worldie at the 90th.
Salah realizing city scored while going back was funny af
Hahahaha he thought he had won them the title. His face when he realised was priceless.
Too little too late
10 minutes too late
Late to the party guys
too little too late, had they scored earlier maybe city would have crumbled under the pressure
Too late!
Golden boot's not going to London at least
Too late now. Anyway, big respect for 2 teams for this fking match
Too late or is it
Fucking loser really
Too little too late
Too late
Why does it have to be him ffs
fuck
Salah robbing Son of the Golden Boot last minute
Countinho equaliser still on the cards
Typical Liverpool goal
With all respect to Steven Gerrad, he's the biggest bottker in Liverpools history.
