[Applause]

that Taver

Christie Taver it was clever and it

nearly worked for sanki yeah that's well

uh well run routine that for Bournemouth

short ball creating some space here as

he gets that ball backat look at the uh

two players running towards that near

post it's a really good ball in just a

little bit too far away from salanki and

cver I think it was who was running in

towards that uh near post somehow don't

seem appropriate in these conditions

this is mallister and the goalkeeper

always able to cover his post well the

conditions do lend themselves to that

sort of effort from quite a long range

out he's not closed down mallister he's

very talented just trying to a cut

across the ball

Gomez Elliot

Again Bradley with

time and canate it was just beyond him

it's been given as a

corner well that was an inviting ball in

wasn't it by Bradley Harvey Elliot just

setting him up nicely he's got plenty of

time to set the ball in front of him and

just again bending into that far

[Applause]

post for Nunes and canate

[Applause]

Diaz metham with the block questions

being asked about a potential arm no

one's getting too excited about it goal

kick we saw a lovely ball from mallister

there we just saw the final part of that

pass to Elliot and then again Diaz

trying to make that space down the side

but well tracked by

[Applause]

meam comes back off Liverpool number

seven

well I think three or four Liverpool

players definitely got the memo about

shooting from

distance slight contact that takes the

sting out of it as

it hits meam having a cut

inside Christy was a Nifty

[Applause]

[Music]

turn quite get hold of that Chris in the

end did he but lovely little

interplay trying to just bend it into

that right hand

side

Sinister

CS good

chance chance of the half

that it's Christie and he had salanki

right behind him too

tarir

cook again this is excellent intensity

and pressure Sinister does brilliantly

here two Liverpool players coming out to

meet

him uses his Pace to get away from them

and then good

Vision cver again he's a threatening

busy player isn't he

cook mallister winning it for

sha Diaz couldn't take it with him it's

going to be a

corner cver will be thanking his

teammates there really caught by

mallister here just took a little bit

too long mallister steps in uses his

body well releases jotter and then the

ball again in between two Liverpool

players three Premier League fixtures

and three cup games in the month and

here is

Nunes and Darwin Nunes scores a goal

that he and Liverpool have really need

[Applause]

it

it's the mark of a team with staying

[Music]

power it's the mark of a team with

durability and it's the mark of a team

that will not be cowed by the presence

of Manchester City yeah I said a moment

of Genius might separate these teams and

Liverpool have started this half really

well it's a bit of a hope for ball

forwards but as I said the wind just

holding up slightly and this is genius

genius play between simple football and

great awareness Curtis Jones who's

really

maturing as a player feeding the ball to

jotter It's All One Touch football isn't

it controls with his chest One Touch

there into jot One Touch to Nunes and

one touch pass pass Netto it's a lovely

really well constructed

goal and Bournemouth couldn't get close

enough the ball was moving too quickly

for them to

engage and it's Advantage Liverpool and

the goal scored by the player that got

the winner here for Liverpool in the

League Cup in

November

cook clly

HS deflection left Allison awkwardly

stranded it's a corner that's an

excellent response by Bournemouth

and little bit fortunate here Liverpool

that deflection could have gone anywhere

again it's a cut back to the edge of the

Box cver did really well to hold that

position but as he strikes the ball here

his standing foot just starts to go a

little bit van djk using all of his

experience just to protects as much of

the goal as he

can

[Applause]

nun standing one up for

Bradley he h got his head in his hands

there young Bradley was in a brilliant

position and I think he just completely

forgot how to head the

football he does really well to dig that

out and he's confused I think between

trying to score and trying to hit it

back across the

goal this is The Challenge on J there's

some there's some contact there

but he's running into the player it's

all happening quite quickly and it's

very tight in

[Applause]

there nun support from

gakpo here's

sha and that is clean precise and

emphatic from Dogo

Shota and it sends a message that

however difficult the conditions

Liverpool mean

business and given

how poor their standard to been in the

last sort of 5 10 minutes Jurgen klopp

wasn't happy with how they were playing

and it's it's a scrappy stage in the

game the ball never really looks like

it's under control by anyone here but

nun wins competes gets a little bit

fortunate but then it's good quality

good quality pass into

jota from gakpo comes in off that left

hand side just feeds him really nicely

sets it up where he doesn't need to take

a touch as soon as that Ball's play to

jot the quality is that good that he

doesn't have to do anything other than

than think about where he's going to

strike the ball and when he does that

really

well so than you leaving it for

Christie Gren

back gakpo says to Nunes chase

that now the pursuit is on in the middle

for position of Maximum

opportunity Connor Bradley Dio zota

second time

3-0 wrapped up

nle by J for Liverpool who are heading

Five Points clear at the

summit yeah I certainly don't think

Bournemouth deserve to be three

down and doo jot there was a lovely

finish but the Mis kick before fell

really kindly for him but again it's

that efficiency good decisions they win

the ball break through bom Miss Midfield

that pass there is excellent by gakpo

into

the path of uh Nunes and then he One

Touch

around or down the side of the pitch not

collected in the first instance and

there that's where jot gets very

fortunate but he reacts really quickly

to his own Mis

kick he sees it first to react and just

drive it into the uh into the far

corner it's Alex Scott who's come off

worse as J Dives in for that ball Scott

tried to block him but has hurt himself

in the process back up on his feet

though

[Applause]

now

graen

GTO

Gomez and

nun he matches J with a

brace and Liverpool now are doing this

with a bit of style and

[Applause]

Swagger to turn in four goals I was

saying it won't be a particularly

memorable game maybe it will

be that's a brilliant

finish again mallister just recycling

the ball from left to right out to Gomez

on that right hand side he's moved out

there since Beck came on the young left

back

and it's a slightly unusual finish by

nun it's a delightful ball in it's

absolutely perfect and

he just makes contact with it doesn't he

redirects it gowood with the outside of

his foot and hits the deck very

nonchalant in terms of finish

and Scot tracking

back Gordon involving himself and

billing is forced into a hurried

clearance which is the Final Act of what

in the end will be shown in the history

books as a pretty one-sided game

Liverpool winning by four goals to nil

to go Five Points clear at the top

thanks to a pair of goals from nun and a

pair also from Diego

Zan your concluding thoughts on this

ground no I think for anyone supporting

Liverpool and particularly Jurgen klopp

he's going to be delighted with that cuz

this was a tough tough fixture given the

form of Bournemouth and the way they

play

here yes bournemouth's home record of

late has been more than solid but

they've been picked apart in the second

half here by an impressive

Liverpool for whom it is a job

particularly well done in very testing

conditions fulltime at the Vitality

Bournemouth nil Liverpool
