The clash on February 13th did not disappoint. Liverpool turned on a new leaf to stem a recent spate of poor results to beat their neighbours 2-0.

Mohammed Salah capped off a wonderful counterattack to score his first home goal since end of October before Cody Gakpo finally opened his Liverpool account with a simple tap-in in the second half.
