Match Highlights
Two own goals from Wout Faes helped Liverpool to a 2-1 comeback win over
Leicester which moves the Reds to within two points of fourth place in the
Premier League.
Liverpool's first outing at Anfield since before the World Cup got off to a
nightmare start just four minutes in when Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall carved
through the home side's defence before bumping a finish past Alisson.
But after end-to-end action, Leicester centre-back Faes gave Liverpool a
massive helping hand, first somehow slashing Trent Alexander-Arnold's cross
up and over Foxes goalkeeper Danny Ward (38) before thumping the ball into
his own net again (45) after Darwin Nunez's chip hit a post.
"An absolute nightmare for him and a nightmare for Leicester," said Sky
Sports' Jamie Carragher on co-commentary - one of three other players to
have the unwanted record of scoring two own goals in a Premier League match.
