Liverpool 2-1 Burnley

THE GOAL STANDS!!!

Kompany is having words with the officials. Mac Allister looked to have kicked through Ramsey in the build-up before the ball broke to Elliott down the right. He was deemed onside but I’m not sure if that challenge was checked.

Kompany gets booked for his complaints. That’s his third of the season. He’ll now face a ban.

Anyway, Liverpool are back to the top!

GOAL! Liverpool 1-0 Burnley (Jota, 31)

Burnley have played some aggressive and impressive stuff but get undone by a simple set piece! Just what Liverpool needed!

Alexander-Arnold’s corner draws Trafford off his line but he flaps at thin air. It leaves Jota with the simple task of heading home from six yards out. Appalling goalkeeping.

FPL Assist: Alexander-Arnold
