Despite the absence of Raheem Sterling, the Reds were in control throughout the match, and the closeness of the scoreline perhaps didn’t fully reflect the one-sided nature of the game, with the hosts only really threatening in the closing stages.
Read the full Liverpool ratings below:
GK) Simon Mignolet – 6
Had a quiet afternoon, but his distribution was poor once again, and is now letting him down more than his handling.
RCB) Emre Can – 8
Made the goal, adjusted well to being repositioned to wing-back in the second-half, an excellent all round performance.
