Late Goals From Núñez Secure Crucial Win for Liverpool
Liverpool's title charge is back on track after Darwin Núñez's late double at Brentford. The Uruguayan striker answered his critics with two crucial goals in added time.

Darwin Núñez Delivers for Liverpool
Liverpool's title charge is back on track after a 2-0 win at Brentford. The Reds dominated the game but could not find the breakthrough until the 94th minute, when Darwin Núñez scored his first goal of the game. Two minutes later, Núñez doubled his tally to secure the win for Liverpool.
The win moves Liverpool back to within three points of leaders Arsenal, who have a game in hand. It is also a much-needed boost for Núñez, who has been the subject of transfer speculation in recent weeks.
Núñez has been in and out of the Liverpool team this season, but he showed his quality with two clinical finishes. His first goal came when he diverted Trent Alexander-Arnold's cross into the net, and his second was a powerful shot into the top corner.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot was full of praise for Núñez after the game. "He scores goals," Slot said. "He works very hard for the team. He assists, but he's in competition with a lot of good players. So that's why he's not every single game on the pitch."
Slot also praised the performance of his team as a whole. "We created a lot of chances," he said. "We should have scored more goals, but we're happy with the three points."
Liverpool will now look to build on this win when they host Southampton on Saturday.
