Liverpool got on the board early thanks to a Ryan Gravenberch strike, but poor play in the back allowed Chelsea to equalize, and neither side could find a winner as the sides settled for a 1-1 draw.

* **Marmadashvili (?/10)** Some big stops, but was rooted to the spot on Chelsea’s goal.

* **Kerkez  (5/10)** His pairing with Jones did not pan  out as the duo allowed Chelsea way to much space to make runs at goal

* **Szoboszlai (7/10)** Really strong second half. Forced a massive save. 

* **Jones (5/10)** Allowed Chelsea forwards to get behind him too often 

* **Van Dijk (6/10)** Worked in a good position to get a first-half shot but missed a sitter**.** Ok performance in the back

* **Konate (7/10)** Best of the defenders

* **Gakpo (5/10)**  Needed to have more touches in the attacking third

* **Ngumoha (7/10)** One of the best players on the pitch. Surprised he was subbed off

* **Frimpong (6/10)** Some nice runs in the box. Drew a yellow card

* **Gravenberch** (**7/10)**  Sublime hit for Liverpool’s goal 

* **Mac Allister (7/10)** Really active in the second half, which drew the appreciation of the Anfield crowd 

* **Isak** (**5/10)** Not really his fault, but this score reflects his performance in comparison to Ngumoha 

* **Chiesa (6/10)** Quiet day. Not really given a fair shake under Slot.

* **Gomez (6/10)**  Solid in defense to help see out the draw

* **Arne Slot (6/10)** Strong Starting XI, but a head-scratching decision to sub Ngumoha off 

Probably a fair result as both teams had a goal disallowed in the second half. Even so, the Reds have to be disappointed to drop points against a struggling Chelsea side
