Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai,

Liverpool rescued a dramatic 2-2 draw against Newcastle United at St James’ Park after Dominik Szoboszlai converted a stoppage-time penalty with virtually the last kick of the game on Saturday.

Newcastle appeared to be heading for victory after goals from Anthony Elanga and Joe Willock, while Cody Gakpo had briefly brought Liverpool level in the second half.

The hosts made a bright start as Elanga opened the scoring after being played through by William Osula. The forward kept his composure to send a neat finish into the far corner for his first goal for Newcastle.

Liverpool responded after the break, with Gakpo producing an accurate strike from distance that found the back of the net and restored parity.
