It took a penalty in the last minute of the match for Liverpool to win 1–0. It was Mohamed Salah who took care of it, after a hand situation in Burnley's penalty area.
Liverpool tops the Premier League table with maximum twelve points after four rounds.
Isak joined Liverpool on the last day of the summer window from Newcastle, where he went on strike to force the move.
During the World Championship qualification with Sweden, Isak only got 18 minutes of playing time, in the 0–2 loss against Kosovo. Local newspaper Liverpool Echo's reporter Ian Doyle believes it was after a discussion between the club and the national team.
Conversations took place between Liverpool's and Sweden's medical staff that it was in everyone's best interest to limit Isak's minutes. He would not have been of any value to anyone if he had injured himself when he played such intense matches so close together after a long time without playing a single minute, says Doyle to Expressen.
After the national team gathering, Isak has been training with Liverpool, and according to British information, he has impressed the coaching staff during the training sessions. But despite that, it was still no play for Isak on Sunday.
