Jürgen Klopp credited Liverpool for emerging victorious from ‘one of the most hard-fought 3-0s I ever saw’ against Crystal Palace at Anfield.
Sadio Mane’s 100th goal for the club, which arrived a couple of minutes before half-time, set the Reds on their way to a battling victory on Saturday.
Mohamed Salah then struck to make it 2-0 in the 78th minute, after Alisson Becker had made a number of vital interventions to keep his team ahead.
And Naby Keita’s sensational volley from distance late on wrapped up a win that puts Klopp’s side top of the Premier League with 13 points from five games.
