That’s all for tonight. I’ll leave you with match reports from Anfield and the LNER Stadium (aka Sincil Bank). Goodnight.
Liverpool reaction

I could have done better with my first chance. But then it’s all about being ready for the next one [which he scored], so I’m happy with that. It was good to get some more minutes but it’s a competitive game so the main priority is to win.
I feel good, I feel fit. It’s still early – new club, new teammates – and with each game it’s only going to get better.
[On being asked to do sprints on the pitch at half-time] Yeah that was a new one. It was funny. Gotta get fit!
Andy Robertson
We can’t keep relying on late goals. We were nowhere near our standards, especially in the first half. I’m delighted for Alex; the first goal is always the hardest. Hopefully there are many more to come.
He was excellent against Atletico and again today. He looks fit to me! Maybe the sports scientists think a little differently. But that’s what we had to do in pre-season as well!
[On the Ekitike red card] I’ll be very surprised if he does it again. Scoring a goal is always emotional and he must have forgotten he’d already been booked. The first one was stupidity, for kicking the ball away, and now we miss him for Saturday. It’s silly on his part but he’s only young and he’ll learn from it.
