Liverpool 3-0 Huddersfield

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp got one over on best friend David Wagner as Daniel Sturridge's 100th club goal paved the way for a 3-0 win over Huddersfield at Anfield.

Wagner, Klopp's best man and former youth team coach under his long-time friend at Borussia Dortmund, had said he would park the bus as numerous visitors to Anfield had done before them with general success and he was true to his word as Huddersfield retreated into a 5-4-1 formation without the ball.

The Terriers, who ended Manchester United's unbeaten start to the season last week, comfortably held their hosts at bay for 50 minutes courtesy of goalkeeper Jonas Lossl's penalty save from Mohamed Salah.

However, a brilliant striker's finish from Sturridge broke their resistance just after the break and Roberto Firmino and Georginio Wijnaldum secured only Liverpool's second win in seven Premier League games.

The result had looked far from secure after a dreadful first half, watched by the president of club owners Fenway Sports Group, Mike Gordon, who had flown in for the game.
