Liverpool managed to beat Leeds 6-1 away in their Plremier League clash on Monday, showing glimpses of their well-known style that the fans were missing this season.
With the win Liverpool is now six points away from fourth-placed Newcastle with one less game played and their hopes for a Champions League spot next season are still very much alive.
The Reds opened the scoring in the 35 minute when Alexander-Arnold sent an inch-perfect pass into the feet of Kody Gakpo who had an easy job just to tap na ball in. Just four minutes later Diogo Jota did a superb job and passed the ball to Mohamed Salah and the Egyptian shot into the left side of the net.
