Match Highlights
10′. 1:0. GOAL! Nunez scores! Alexander-Arnold clips a brilliant ball towards to No.27 in behind Schar and Trippier. Then Darwin Nunez takes a perfect touch on his left foot, chests it down before firing the bouncing ball beyond the keeper.
17′. 2:0. GOAL! Gakpo scores! The Reds double their lead with another brilliant spell of play. Salah arcs an wonderful first-time clipped pass over the top of the Newcastle defence to Gakpo. No.18 brings the ball down with one touch then sticks out his right boot to slot the ball under the onrushing Pope.
22′. Newcastle goalkeeper Pope is sent off for deliberate handball. Alisson caught a Trippier free-kick and releases the ball quickly down the field searching for Salah. Pope races out of his box and fails to clear the bounce off the ball with his head. Pope handles ends up stopping the ball to prevent Salah scoring.
