KEY MOMENTS
48’ GGGOOOAAALLL!!! Blind slots a beauty of a shot into the top corner. He was picked out in acres of space on the edge of the box by Mata’s free-kick, which will infuriate Rodgers. But credit to the Dutchman for his impressive finish.
65’ The most expensive teenager in the history of football is on the pitch. Martial replaces Mata.
64’ Off the line! Blind clears a goal-bound effort and the recovers quickly to stop Firmino turning home the rebound.
69’ Penalty to United! Gomez slides in and brings down Herrera inside the area. The Spaniard was going nowhere – that was a needless challenge from the youngster.
70’ GGGOOOAAALLL!!! Herrera dusts himself down and takes the spot-kick himself, hammering it into the roof of the net. 2-0 United.
83’ GGGOOOAAALLL!!! Benteke watches a high ball all the way on to his right foot as he unleashes a brilliant scissor-kick volley from inside a crowded penalty area to bring Liverpool back into this. That was truly exceptional from the Belgian!
84’ GGGOOOAAALLL!!! Martial produces a moment of magic on his debut! Cutting inside from the left, he jinks between Skrtel and Clyne before curling a lovely finish into the far corner. Worth every penny! 3-1.
