In the end, it was another comfortable win for Liverpool, in a run that’s becoming quite a habit for them.

Jurgen Klopp’s side were sensational at times against Porto at Anfield, and their eventual 2-0 win over the Portuguese came courtesy of a sumptuous finish from Thiago Alcantara and yet another Mo Salah goal.

The two goals also appear to have, incredibly, equalled an 82-year-old record of a team having scored at least two goals in 16 consecutive matches in all competitions.

Only West Ham United have managed to get the better of them in all that time, and they’ll surely push Chelsea all the way both domestically and, were they to meet, in Europe.
