They broke through the midfield with strong possession play and won back the ball on every single opportunity.

Wolves got rewarded for their hardwork in the opening 10 minutes as Pedro Neto ran through Liverpool's defence and found Hwang Hee-chan with a pinpoint pass who made no mistake to break the stalemate.

Wolves dominated the rest of the half creating goal-scoring opportunities but failing to capitalise on it.

Matheus Cunha had an open goal staring at his face following a wonder run from Neto but failed to time his jump and missed the golden opportunity.

Liverpool made a strong comeback in the second half with Salah doing most of the work and finding Cody Gakpo to find the net with ease and bring parity to the game.

The Reds grew in confidence, carrying the attacking threat straight to Wolves. Salah once again drove straight at the defence and found Andrew Robertson with a cut-back pass who tucked it home from close range.

Hugo Bueno's own goal in the extended time rubbed salt in the wounds of the Wolves as the game ended with the scoreline reading 3-1 in favour of Liverpool. (ANI)
