Liverpool kept their perfect Premier League start intact with a dramatic 1-0 victory over Burnley at Turf Moor.
The Clarets’ disciplined defending frustrated Arne Slot’s side for most of the evening, with Liverpool dominating possession but struggling to break through. The deadlock was finally broken deep into stoppage time, when Hannibal Mejbri handled inside the box and Mohamed Salah calmly converted the resulting penalty.
Yet, beyond Salah’s decisive strike, the real spark came earlier from Ryan Gravenberch. In the first half, the Dutch midfielder produced a sublime flick over a Burnley player—a moment of sheer brilliance that lifted the crowd and showcased his technical class.
It was the kind of audacious skill that only a handful of players in today’s game could attempt, sparking debate among fans about who else has the creativity and confidence to pull off such moves.
