Liverpool missed more than one opportunity to add the second goal before the break, before Fabinho scored to make Jurgen Klopp’s team on their way to victory.

But Liverpool became concerned after that, after Elliott suffered a seemingly serious foot injury and needed a long time to treat after a violent intervention from Pascal Struck, who received a direct red card.
Elliott walked out on a stretcher and was greeted by Leeds fans.
IT'S THREE! SADIO! ⚽️
