End of 2nd Half
90+4'
FT: Chelsea 0-2 Liverpool. Mane's double leads the champions to a fine win at the home of a side tipped to be a title rival this season. Christensen's red card at the end of the first half left the Blues with a mountain to climb and their misery was compounded when Alisson saved Jorginho's late penalty. Liverpool gave some minutes to new signing Thiago off the bench and will head forward with real confidence after this success.

Salah with great feet n the box. His shot hits Kepa and Wijnaldum can't react quickly enough to tap home.
