Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah were on target to move Jurgen Klopp’s side 16 points clear at the top of the league.

The Dutch man scored a 14th minute header, timing his run to meet an outswinging corner from Trent Alexander-Arnold, before a 93rd minute counter-attack scored by Salah to put the game beyond the visitors, who were showing signs of a comeback late on.

The Eqyptian was well positioned to connect with Alisson’s direct ball running a whole half before sliding a shot under De Gea, sending Anfield into frenzy.

“We shall not be moved”, sing the Liverpool fans. Followed by “we’re going to win the league”.
