Liverpool are usually so adept at following their manager’s commands but, on this occasion, the opposite was true. MATCH FACTS AND PREMIER LEAGUE TABLE: Leicester (4-3-1-2): Schmeichel, Castagne, Amartey, Ndidi, Thomas, Choudhury (Lookman 56), Soumare, Dewsbury-Hall, Maddison (Albrighton 68), Vardy, Iheanacho (Tielemans 55). Goal: Lookman 59 Liverpool (4-3-3): Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Tsimikas, Henderson (Firmino 70), Fabinho (Milner 64), Oxlade-Chamberlain (Keita 55), Salah, Jota, Mane.
