Liverpool made a blistering start in their Premier League clash against West Ham.
The Reds raced into an early lead after just five minutes through Hugo Ekitiké.
The Frenchman controlled well from Ryan Gravenberch’s pass and applied a tidy low finish past Mads Hermansen.

It was Ekitiké’s 11th Premier League goal of the campaign and the summer arrival has set himself apart from the chasing pack as Liverpool’s standout goal scorer and provider this season.
Things got even better for Arne Slot’s men mid-way through the first half as Virgil van Dijk headered in from close range.
