Christian Atsu was in action for the entire 90 minutes as Newcastle United lost 3-1 to Liverpool in the Premier League.
The Magpies took a surprise lead in the seventh minute with Atsu’s pass finding Jetro Williams – who found space on the left-hand side of the penalty area and rifled home a powerful shot into the top right corner, leaving Reds goalkeeper Adrian with no chance.
The lead was however short-lived as Senegal hotshot Sadio Mane, equalised 20 minutes later, connecting with Andy Robertson’s cross.
Mane again, made it 2-1 five minutes to half-time, Atsu being the culprit this time by getting dispossessed in midfield.
