Premier League leaders Liverpool have set a new record in the wake of their hard-earned win over relegation battlers Cardiff City in their Premier League clash at the Cardiff City Stadium on Sunday evening.
The Reds secured their 27th league victory over the season against the Bluebirds to secure top spot on the league table ahead of Premier League champions Manchester City who still have one game over Liverpool.
Manchester City have four league games to play between now and the end of the season while Liverpool have just three games left before the current Premier League season wraps up.
The Reds gave themselves a fighting chance for the Premier League title with a 2-0 victory over Welsh club Cardiff City.
Both sides played out a goalless draw at the end of first half before it took eleven second half minutes for Liverpool to register the first goal of the game.
Dutch international midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum broke the deadlock for Liverpool off an assist from England international right-back Trent Alexandre-Arnold.
The visitors doubled their lead in the last ten minutes when James Milner converted a penalty after Cardiff City defender Sean Morrison fouled Mohamed Salah in the box.
With the win, Liverpool set a new club record for the most points in a Premier League season (88 points) with three games still to play.
