Match Highlights
36′. 1:0. GOAL! Mo Salah scores! Liverpool take the lead on a lightning break through Salah.
After Tarkowski hits the post with a header, then the Reds hit the Blues on the counter as Nunez breaks with speed down the left flank and cross is inch-perfect into the middle where Salah beats Pickford.
49′. 2:0. GOAL! It is a first goal for the Reds for Cody Gakpo! The Reds notch their second of the game on another counter which Gakpo converts to score.
Robertson collects the ball on the left and surges forward the centre of the pitch before offloads to Salah, who releases Alexander-Arnold. Trent eventually laying the ball on a plate to the back post for Gakpo, where Cody taps home.
