According to thisisanfield.com
Jurgen Klopp made three changes to his side. Takumi Minamino was among those to come in, and it took the Japanese – playing on the left – just two minutes to score his first Premier League goal.
The Champions capitalised on their openings and Sadio Mane ended his drought with a deadly finish. Firmino capped the first-half scoring with a sublime goal on the counter.
The party didn’t stop with the half-time whistle, as Liverpool continued to punish Palace after the break. Henderson curled an unstoppable finish beyond Vicente Guaita first-time.
Klopp flexed his bench options by sending on Mo Salah for Mane.
Firmino, latching onto Salah’s pass before chipping the onrushing Guaita for his second away goal in 70 minutes.
Salah extended the gap further with 10 minutes still left to play, turning in Joel Matip‘s towering header from Alexander-Arnold’s corner, before making it 7-0 with a stunning curler soon after.
