Liverpool stretch winning run over Crystal Palace to 10 games

Liverpool extended their winning run over Crystal Palace to 10 games as Jurgen Klopp’s side ran out 3-1 winners at Selhurst Park on Sunday to close the gap to Manchester City to nine points. Palace let Liverpool dictate play in the early exchanges, which was eventually punished as Klopp’s side took an early lead with just seven minutes on the clock.

Andy Robertson’s corner was met by a bullet header at the near post by Virgil van Dijk. Ad/> Liverpool then had their second in the 32nd minute, as Robertson’s diagonal ball into the box was finished well by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain on the volley to give the left-back his second assist.
