Liverpool ease past Lyon as stars return to XI

A powered up Liverpool, elevated by the homecoming of some of their world-class talent, eased to a 3-1 win over Lyon in a friendly in Geneva on Wednesday night.

Jurgen Klopp had revealed during the club's U.S. tour that the game in Geneva was scheduled with a view to the returning players getting minutes in before the Community Shield, so it was no surprise to see Alisson, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino start.

The trio met up with the squad in Evian on Monday following their post-season breaks after international duty, impressing during the fitness tests and in training.
