Liverpool match verdict as Paul Gorst reports on the 3-0 win at home to Brentford in the Premier League
After a week where they encountered their first minor wobble of the season, Liverpool made sure they are instead skipping into the international break thanks to an emphatic response here against Brentford.
As a result the manager made as many as seven changes from the defeat in Toulouse on Thursday as Joel Matip, Wataru Endo, Kostas Tsimikas and Cody Gakpo kept their places. Darwin Nunez thought he had his eighth goal of the campaign when he controlled a mis-hit shot from Dominik Szoboszlai before finishing it off, but after a lengthy VAR check, the Uruguayan's toe was marginally offside according to the officials in Stockley Park. His wonderfully improvised overhead moments later, after goalkeeper Mark Flekken had saved from Matip, was more obviously offside at least.
The cries of "f*** off Tierney" after Matip was cautioned in the centre circle for what appeared a fair enough challenge on Christian Norgaard was the catalyst for a snarling, defiant sort of atmosphere that only inspired the players on the pitch. Within moments Nunez had assisted Salah and the hosts were given a smidgen of reward for their dominance.
But if it is Salah whose hogging of the statistical headlines goes on, Nunez's all-action cameo was just as impactful. The No.9 was a constant source of activity for the Reds, forcing Brentford's overworked backline into action time and again. He never gave them a minute and will feel unfortunate he was not among the goals himself.
