Liverpool more than made for a diabolically poor first-half showing at Anfield, which saw them concede twice, with a stunning outing after the half-time break.
With the Reds having the greater share of goalscoring chances, as has been backed up by the post-match xG statistics (a higher rating than what we recorded against Manchester United in the 7-0 win at L4), it wouldn’t be facetious to suggest that Jurgen Klopp’s men could have walked out deserved winners at the full-time whistle.

One man in particular may be left wondering how on earth he didn’t register the winning goal, with Ibou Konate denied by a stunning Aaron Ramsdale save at the death – a moment that had Jamie Carragher admitting his disbelief post-game: “I mean, I can’t believe Konate hasn’t put it in at the end.”
