Did you catch the weekend’s Premier League Round 28 action?
A weekend full of tension and pure football adrenaline is how one could describe the 28th round of the Premier League, which shuffled the entire table and changed the current leader. As we wrote in our article yesterday, Arsenal has caught an amazing pace, winning one game after another. This streak was no exception in their Saturday match against Brentford, which ended 2:1.
However, the significant change came during yesterday’s Liverpool versus Manchester City game, ending in a 1:1 draw. Thanks to the draw between the two biggest current Premier League champions, Arsenal climbed to the top spot. At this moment, we could use the apt proverb, “When two fight, the third one laughs.”
Manchester City took control of the first half of the match with a goal by John Stones. Liverpool attacked with full force in the second half and equalized in the 50th minute with a beautiful penalty by Mac Allister. Since then, Liverpool dominated for the rest of the match but unfortunately missed several great chances.
But the whole thing might not have ended in a draw if the referee had been fairer. In the 99th minute, Jérémy Doku kicked Mac Allister in the ribs while trying to clear the ball. The referee consulted the video assistant referee about the situation, but no penalty ensued. From our perspective, it was a clear foul, and there should have been a penalty, which might have secured a victory for Liverpool. And how do you see it?

However, the penalty did not occur, and so Arsenal has moved to the lead in the Premier League with a current 64 points. Liverpool also has the same number of points on their account, but due to the draw, they have moved to second place. Manchester City is only one point behind the top two teams. Can you already guess who we will see in the Premier League final? There are 10 matches left in the season!
The 28th Round of the Premier League will conclude with tonight’s Chelsea against Newcastle match at Stamford Bridge, starting at 21:00. Do you have your ticket ready? We at ChampionBet certainly do! For more information on prestigious football leagues and casino games, follow our blog regularly.
