10 memorable double strikes by LFC substitutes

Xherdan Shaqiri's decisive double strike after coming off the bench in Sunday's 3-1 win against Manchester United put Liverpool back on top of the Premier League and added the Swiss forward's name to an exclusive list of Reds goalscorers.

The summer signing had been on the Anfield pitch for just 144 seconds before smashing home a 73rd-minute goal to put the Reds 2-1 up.

Then, seven minutes later, he netted again to seal a valuable victory which kept the Reds one point ahead of defending champions Manchester City in the title race.

In doing so, Shaqiri became only the 20th player in Liverpool history to score a brace or more after coming off the bench.
