Liverpool 4-1 Norwich City: Title chasers start Premier League season in style in entertaining Anfield clash


Ruthless Liverpool gave Norwich a rude welcome back to the Premier League as they inflicted a 4-1 rout at Anfield on Friday night, but there was a worrying sight for Jurgen Klopp as goalkeeper Alisson hobbled off before half-time.

Norwich, back in the top flight after a three-year absence, gifted the European champions a seventh-minute lead via Grant Hanley’s own goal and quickly crumbled as Mohamed Salah, Virgil Van Dijk and Divock Origi added to the score before half-time.

The Canaries looked much better in the second half as Teemu Pukki pulled a goal back but there was nothing they could do to prevent a 10th straight Premier League win for the hosts.

However, what could have been the perfect start to what Liverpool hope will be another title challenge had the sheen taken off by Alisson’s injury as the Brazilian went down clutching his calf after slipping while playing a goal kick.
