LEEDS 0 LIVERPOOL 3Mo Salah’s 100th Premier League goal was the highlight for Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool maintained their impressive start to the season but the lowlight came in the form of a sickening injury to Harvey Elliott. The one goal Liverpool did claim came from Salah who, in the process, became the 30th player to hit a century in the Premier League era. The impressive Elliott came close with a couple of chances, one that was brilliantly blocked by Liam Cooper, with Meslier doing the same from the follow-up. Alexander-Arnold’s corner found van Dijk who guided a header goalwards, the ball striking Fabinho who recovered well and poked the ball into the net. LIVERPOOL (4-3-3): Alisson 6, Alexander-Arnold 7, Matip 7, van Dijk 6, Robertson 6; Elliott 7 (Henderson 63, 6), Fabinho 7, Thiago 9 (Keita 90); Salah 8, Jota 6 (Oxlade-Chamberlain 82), Mane 6.
