Liverpool equalled the record for the joint-biggest Premier League win in history by beating Bournemouth 9-0 at Anfield.
The hosts scored twice inside the opening six minutes, with Roberto Firmino lifting a cross in from the right that Luis Diaz headed into the top corner, before the Brazilian was involved again as he set Harvey Elliott up to curl inside the far post.
By the 31st minute, Liverpool had scored twice more. Trent Alexander-Arnold played a neat one-two with the lively Firmino before arrowing a shot from distance into the top corner, before the centre-forward got on the scoresheet himself, diverting Mohamed Salah’s deflected cross in from close range.
On the stroke of half-time, Jurgen Klopp’s men made it 5-0. Andy Robertson’s corner was met by Virgil van Dijk, who powered home a header.
Liverpool picked up where they left off in the second half, with Chris Mepham inadvertently turning Alexander-Arnold’s deep cross past his own goalkeeper and Firmino adding to his personal tally, tapping home the rebound after Mark Travers was unable to hold Robertson’s cross.
Kostas Tsimikas set up fellow substitute Fabio Carvalho late on, before the Greek defender’s corner found Diaz, who made it a record-equalling 9-0.
