2018-12-21

El egipcio Mohamed Salah (18) y el central holandés Virgil van Dijk (68) fueron los autores de los goles de los 'Reds', que comenzaron con buen pie el maratón de partidos que deberán disputar en el periodo navideño.

Esta victoria, la séptima consecutiva para los de Anfield, permite al Liverpool pasar la Navidad y llegar al Boxing Day como líder del campeonato.

Este viernes, bajo la lluvia y sobre un césped resbaladizo, los 'Reds' se mostraron superiores ante un equipo al que ni los dos equipos de Manchester, ni el Arsenal ni el Chelsea habían logrado ganar.
