Liverpool began their Premier League title defense with a pulsating 4-2 victory over Bournemouth at Anfield, marking the opening game of the 2025/26 season.
The defending champions, under the guidance of manager Arne Slot, looked determined to maintain their dominance after securing the league crown last season. New signing Hugo Ekitike wasted no time in making an impact, calmly finishing past goalkeeper Petrovic after racing through on goal to open the scoring.
However, the momentum shifted when Antoine Semenyo pulled one back for Bournemouth. The forward, who endured racial abuse during the first half, responded with character and determination, scoring twice in quick succession—including a brilliant solo strike that silenced Anfield for a moment.
The result highlighted Liverpool’s attacking firepower and mental strength, as they overcame Bournemouth’s spirited comeback to begin their season with a crucial win in front of their fans. The champions will see this as an encouraging step towards another strong title challenge in the 2025/26 campaign.
