A masterful performance from Hugo Ekitiké helped Liverpool secure a 4–1 victory over Newcastle United on Saturday night.
Groans spilled from the packed crowd at Anfield when Anthony Gordon opened the scoring in the 36th minute, but the hosts valiantly fought back. Ekitiké took control of the game and bagged an equaliser just five minutes later, before sending home his second to give Arne Slot’s men the lead at half-time.
