Thiago Alcantara analyses Anfield draw with Newcastle

Thiago Alcantara rued Liverpool's failure to capitalise on the chances they created in a frustrating 1-1 draw with Newcastle United on Saturday.

The Reds raced into a third-minute lead in the Premier League clash at Anfield courtesy of an exquisite finish from Mohamed Salah, his 20th in the division this season.

But the hosts were unable to add further to the scoresheet despite fashioning a series of strong opportunities, leaving the door ajar for Newcastle to level.

And after Callum Wilson had seen a late effort ruled out for handball, Joe Willock’s deflected strike beat Alisson Becker five minutes into stoppage time.
