Salah 9/10, Fabinho 8/10 as Liverpool smash City to go eight points clear

Liverpool ran out convincing winners over Manchester City to extend their lead to eight points at the summit of the Premier league table. In an early test of Liverpool's title credentials, Jurgen Klopp's side rose to the occasion, winning 3-1 to make their biggest statement yet this season.

The home side took the lead thanks to an early Fabinho thunderbolt, that beat Claudio Bravo at his near post. Not long after, Liverpool made it two, with a wonderful Andy Robertson cross picking out Mohamed Salah at the back post.
