"Liverpool moved up to fifth in the Premier League as they came from behind to beat Newcastle United 4-1 at Anfield. Both sides came into the game on the back of impressive performances in the Champions League. But, after a strong start from Newcastle that saw them take a deserved lead through Anthony Gordon, Liverpool took control, with Hugo Ekitike the star."
"Ekitike, whom Newcastle made a second attempt at signing in the summer, scored twice in the space of three minutes to turn the game on its head. Florian Wirtz then made it 3-1 with a smart finish as his impressive form continued and, though Newcastle were a threat throughout, Liverpool added gloss to the scoreline when Ibrahima Konate tapped in having returned to the side following the death of his father."
