Premier League: Isak shines, Liverpool wins 2-0 against West Ham

On the evening of November 30, the match between West Ham and Liverpool took place in round 13 of the 2025-2026 Premier League.

With confidence rising after positive results and home field advantage, West Ham entered the game very quickly with the determination to take the lead against their opponents.

In fact, in the first half, West Ham created quite a lot of trouble in front of Liverpool's goal.

Jarrod Bowen and Callum Wilson alone put the Kop's goal on alert several times. But for the entire 45 minutes, West Ham were powerless to find a way into the visitors' net.

On the opposite side of the field, despite playing with a very strong squad, Liverpool played quite safely and could not find a goal in the first half.

After the break, coach Arne Slot asked his players to push up their formation to play offensively with the goal of finding a goal to break the deadlock.

In the 60th minute, Cody Gakpo dribbled the ball and then passed it back smartly for Alexander Isak to finish neatly, putting Liverpool ahead.

Conceding a goal, West Ham fought back, but their haste caused them to miss opportunities. In the 84th minute, Lucas Paquetá even received a red card after overreacting and putting the Hammers at a disadvantage.

With the advantage of having one more player, Liverpool played leisurely in the rest of the second half and scored another goal in the 90+2 minute thanks to Cody Gakpo.

A comfortable 2-0 win over West Ham helped Liverpool end a three-game losing streak. At the same time, the three points helped The Kop temporarily rise to 8th place in the rankings.
