Moses outshines Salah on Chelsea return as Liverpool lose at Stamford Bridge

The Nigeria international put in a decent shift in his defensive and attacking duties, providing the assist for the crucial goal

Victor Moses put up an impressive display in Chelsea’s 1-0 victory over Liverpool in Sunday's Premier League encounter.

The wing-back gave the assist for Olivier Giroud’s match-winning effort in the first half, while his African counterparts; Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah lost with the Reds.

In the 32nd minute, the Nigeria international beat left-back Andy Robertson to deliver a cross which was met by Giroud’s head to give Antonio Conte’s men the maximum points.

The former Liverpool player would have finished the tie with two assists but Marcos Alonso’s ferocious volley off his inch-perfect cross flashed past Loris Karius post.
