Ghana duo Jordan Ayew and Jeffrey Schlupp came off the bench to feature when Crystal Palace stunned Liverpool in the English Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

Liverpool's Premier League title hopes suffered a huge blow as they fell to a 1-0 defeat by Crystal Palace at Anfield.

Eberechi Eze converted from Tyrick Mitchell's cut-back to finish off a flowing Palace move early on and the visitors were deservedly in front at the break.

Ayew was introduced as replacement for Micheal Olise in the 68th minute while Schlupp replaced Eberechi Eze after lasting for 77 minutes of the contest.

Jurgen Klopp's side ramped up the pressure in the second half but, just as in recent games against Manchester United and Atalanta, their finishing let them down as they fell to their first home league defeat November 2022.

The defeat leaves Liverpool two points behind leaders Manchester City and level on points with Arsenal before the Gunners' game against Aston Villa later on Sunday.
