Liverpool 6 Leeds United 0 - reaction and recap
Key Events
- 7.45pm kick-off at Anfield
- Leeds 15th and five points clear of drop zone
- Liverpool second, win puts them three points behind Man City
The positions
2: Dallas is at right back, Ayling and Struijk the centre backs, James upfront. First Reds attack but week Diazo shot from the edge of the box easily saved.
BIG CHANCE LIVERPOOL
4: Far too much space for Diaz down the left, cuts inside, sends a shot towards the opposite corner which looks to be going in but it hits Mane on the head which prevent a possible issue for Meslier. Fine block from Mane from a Leeds point of view
Almost a chance Leeds
6: Fine pressing from James, takes the ball off Alisson in the middle of the area with a sliding challenge but Liverpool clear, decent enough start by Leeds
Another opportunity
8: Rodrigo pass to Harrison but he miskicks his cross when there were men in the middle
