WATCH: Diogo Jota opens the scoring for Liverpool at Anfield against Atletico Madrid

Liverpool are unstoppable at the moment as it takes them just thirteen minutes to go 1-0 against Atletico Madrid at Anfield. Jurgen Klopp’s men started the game brightly and the pressure paid off as Alexander Arnold’s cross was met by Diogo Jota at the back post with the Atletico centre backs failing to pick the Portuguese.

Jordan Henderson played the ball into the path of Trent who was unmarked in the right side as Simeone’s men were all over place trying to stop Liverpool. The cross from Trent was inch perfect and Jota just had the make sure he makes decent contacts and heads the ball past Jan Oblak and the former Wolves player made no mistake.
