Liverpool 2 Leicester 0: Diogo Jota double keeps up pressure on Premier League leaders Man City
A COMPREHENSIVE Liverpool victory and the return of Mo Salah from Afcon signified a good night for home fans at Anfield.
The first goal came for the Reds after 34 minutes when a strong Virgil van Dijk header was saved by Kasper Schmeichel, only for Diogo Jota to fire home to rebound.
A deserved lead only stayed at one because of a number of great Schmeichel saves, including a crucial one-on-one against Salah in the second half.
The Egyptian also hit the bar and Schmeichel was forced to make another fine save from Premier League debutant Luis Diaz.
But in the final few minutes, an instinctive Jota turned and finished to make it a double for him and complete the win for the Reds.
More to follow.
