Goals: Salah 57′, Trent 90+1′; Watkins 43’
The Reds were out to end an eight-game run at Anfield without victory and while it started with the right intentions having dominated possession and territory, they would concede with little fuss.
Ollie Watkins would be credited with the goal, one which ought to have been saved by Alisson on the cusp of half-time.
It then looked as though the barren run in front of goal in open play had come to an end thanks to Roberto Firmino, only for VAR to get their sticky hands on it and ruin the game once more.
An equaliser would materialise, however, through Mohamed Salah who would bring the wait for a goal at Anfield from open play to an end after 756 minutes from close range.

Liverpool finally ended their winless run in the league with a dominant 3-1 win at Tottenham, and fans were rightly delighted to see three points added to the tally.
Tottenham 1-3 Liverpool
January 28, 2021
Goals: Hojbjerg 49′; Firmino 45+4′, Alexander-Arnold 47′, Mane 65′
The Reds started the night in the capital in desperate need of goals and a win and were dealt with a late injury blow to Fabinho for good measure.
A dramatic start saw Sadio Mane miss a glorious chance before Heung-min Son had his goal ruled offside by VAR, where the half then saw Liverpool dominate possession.
And after nearly 500 league minutes without a goal, Roberto Firmino would end the drought from close range to hand Jurgen Klopp‘s side the lead on the cusp of the interval.
