Premier League: Fabio Carvalho scores in the 98th minute as Liverpool beat Newcastle 2-1
Liverpool scored a much-needed winner against Newcastle two minutes and nine seconds into the five minutes long stoppage time. Manager Jurgen Klopp greatly appreciated the Reds

He said, "When we scored after 90-plus-eight minutes, it's the perfect response to that. I'm really happy about that, but nothing else to say." The visitors were determined to score as Alexander Isak's first-half goal increased Newcastle’s chances of winning.
They attacked Klopp's side towards the end of the game and in the final five minutes, Nick Pope needed assistance from a physio for treatment on his shoulder. As two extra minutes were added, Fabio Carvalho's corner turned the tables for the Reds.
"It was the perfect moment to win this game because it was a difficult game, very passionate, aggressive defending," as revealed by the Reds' interim boss. 20-year-old Carvalho scored his second goal in five days to lock Liverpool's second victory from their opening five games.
He has enjoyed a game time of only 84 minutes to date after he departed Fulham this summer. Alexander Isak stole the show in his Newcastle debut, with a goal and another attempt ruled out for an offside. The team wanted to slow the pace for Liverpool in the second half.
On the contrary, the Reds were determined to speed it up so there was a lot of frustration on the field. Newcastle almost scored another goal against top team Liverpool after holding Man City already in the current season.
The Reds will now visit Everton for the Merseyside derby on Saturday before Newcastle tackle Crystal Palace on Saturday.
