Liverpool’s Second-Half Collapse Leads To 3-2 Loss Vs. Southampton

Liverpool was beaten 3-2 by Southampton at St Mary’s on Sunday afternoon as the hosts recovered from two goals down with a second-half comeback.

Quickfire goals from Philippe Coutinho and Daniel Sturridge in the first half had laid a foundation that the Reds might have built on further before the break.

Simon Mignolet prevented the Saints from halving the deficit by repelling Sadio Mane’s penalty, but the forward made amends shortly after the hour mark with an angled smash.

Graziano Pelle then whipped in an equalizer seven minutes before the final whistle, and moments later Mane snuck in behind and struck the winner.
