Liverpool maintained their undefeated Premier League record on Thursday after a slim 2-1 victory at Molineux Stadium.

Jordan Henderson headed home Trent Alexander-Arnold's eighth minute corner to make it 1-0, but the Reds lost Sadio Mane to injury before half-time.

Wolves equalised six minutes into the second half when Raul Jimenez nodded Adama Traore's cross past Alisson Becker after a devastating counter-attack.

The hosts dominated for long spells in the second half, but a suckerpunch from Roberto Firmino wrapped up the win with six minutes remaining.
