For the Liverpool manager, a routine win at the end of a trying week meant so much more. Daniel Sturridge, Roberto Firmino and Georginio Wijnaldum scored the second-half goals that lifted Liverpool’s anxieties. “We had not the best week as you can imagine and we take the situation very seriously,” the Liverpool manager said. No one inside Anfield seemed aware of the offence until the referee showed a yellow card to the Huddersfield captain and pointed to the spot. Salah and Joël Matip both went close to scoring a third as Liverpool ultimately cruised to a much-needed win.
