Anfield.Anfield.
Anfield.

Ramsdale: Scampered back to tip over an audacious free-kick from Alexander-Arnold early on. Good parry to save Mane's point-header, but could do little about Firmano's rebound and had no chance with Jota's header. 7

Baldock: Bombed forward with gusto in first half and caused plenty of problems. Went close on the resumption. Confident showing. 7.

Basham: Dissected by an early pass which nearly led to an opener, but strong and organised after that. 7

Egan: Made a couple of key clearances to prevent goals from Salah and was on message. 8

Ampadu: Handed a chance in the midfield, the loanee was authoritative and disciplined. Really mature performance, won plenty of second balls. 8

Stevens: Part of a regimented back five and held his ground well. Sucked into the flight of the ball for Jota's strike, his only error. 6

Berge: Coolly-taken penalty and was in control in a reassuring performance full of quality. 8

Lundstram: Won his fair share of balls in the middle back in his hometown. Booked for a tough early challenge on Salah. 7

Osborn: Buckets of energy and grasped his chance well. Went close in front of the Kop, with his stinging volley beaten away by Alisson. 8

McBurnie: Never gave the Reds defence a moment's peace and was a thorn in their side. Won a debatable penalty and missed a great chance to score in the first half. 8

Brewster: Worked hard and did his bit for the team and the home defence were wary of his pace. 6

Substitutes: Burke. Posed problems with his directness and pace went he came on. 7.
