Sadio Mane added the second Liverpool of the afternoon just after the half hour mark.
Kasper Schmeichel got a hand to the ball, but he couldn’t prevent it bouncing into the net.
Huge credit must go to Daniel Sturridge as he supplied his second assist of the afternoon. Jordan Henderson clipped a lovely ball over the top for the England man to race on to. The linesman’s flag stayed down, and Daniel pulled off a beautiful back heel flip to put the ball right into Sadio Mane’s path.

Since the goal, the match has taken a turn for the worse after a woeful mistake from Lucas.
He fluffed his control after a pass from Mignolet, before inexplicably prodding the ball across the penalty area straight to Jamie Vardy. It left last season’s league top-scorer with what will probably be the easiest finish of his career.
