Liverpool Keep Pace in Premier League Title Race with 2-0 Win vs. Cardiff City

Liverpool reclaimed their place atop the Premier League after winning 2-0 at Cardiff City on Sunday as Georginio Wijnaldum and James Milner provided the goals in south Wales.

Cardiff kept the game scoreless until the break but conceded to a Wijnaldum volley after the restart, and Milner came off the bench to convert a late penalty following Sean Morrison's foul in the area.

The Reds are again two points in front of second-place Manchester City but have played a match more than their nearest title rivals.
