LIVERPOOL stormed clear at the top of the Premier League following a dismantling of Newcastle United in the swirling rain at Anfield on Monday night.

For large parts of the game, the home side struggled to make their dominance count, missing numerous chances, including one from the penalty spot.

Mohamed Salah’s spot-kick was saved by Martin Dubravka, while Darwin Nunez was thwarted by the Newcastle goalie on numerous occasions.
