Liverpool brushed Aston Villa aside as Jurgen Klopp’s side netted three goals on their way to victory at Anfield on Sunday afternoon.

The Reds made it three consecutive victories as they dominated from start to finish against Unai Emery’s men.

Dominik Szoboszlai netted an incredible goal, scoring his first for the club as the ball fell to him at the edge of the box before the midfielder hit a sublime half-volley past Emi Martinez just three minutes in.

It was 2-0 after 22 minutes as Darwin Nunez’s strike cannoned off the post and hit Matty Cash, who could do nothing to prevent the own goal.

Mohamed Salah sealed all three points in the second half to put Liverpool in cruise control at Anfield.
