Florian Wirtz scores his first goal for Liverpool but Ekitike gets the plaudits
"Florian Wirtz finally got off the mark for Liverpool with a brilliantly taken goal against Wolves. The Reds twice in 90 seconds to take a comfortable 2-0 lead right before half-time. Ryan Gravenberch opened the scoring in the 41st minute following excellent work from Jeremie Frimpong down the right flank. The Dutch wing-back surged forward before delivering a perfectly weighted cut-back, allowing Gravenberch to fire home expertly from the edge of the box."
"The second goal was a move of real quality, with Hugo Ekitike playing a crucial role in the buildup. The French forward showcased his technical ability by beating his marker with a delicate first touch before driving past the Wolves midfield. Ekitike then slipped a perfectly timed through ball into the path of Wirtz, who showed composure beyond his years to poke the finish past the onrushing goalkeeper and spark jubilant celebrations inside Anfield."
