Liverpool 2-0 Newcastle - Player Ratings 

Liverpool

Mane celebrating Liverpool's second goal of the night and his 14th overall

Loris Karius - 8/10

Having spent much of the game as a spectator, the German did make an incredible save to deny Diame in the first half. Another solid performance from him tonight.

Trent Alexander-Arnold - 7/10

The right-back continued his impressive run of form this evening. He provided width and created chances while going forward.

Dejan Lovren - 7/10

The Croatian looked at ease after being chosen over Matip. A decent game for the centre-back.

Virgil van Dijk - 8/10

He was at the heart of Liverpool's defence. A very calm and a composed game from the former Southampton player.

Andrew Robertson - 7/10

It was another great game from the Scotland international. Though Yedlin did get the better of him at times, Robertson did well to close down his space and was even a threat while going forward.

Jordan Henderson - 7/10

Having returned back to the team after the Champions League game against Porto, the skipper had an emphatic return. He was pivotal in breaking up the play of Newcastle.

Emre Can - 7/10

The German proved to be an important player to link up the defence with the attack. A very big positive would be that he can feature against Manchester United as he did not pick up a yellow card.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain - 7/10

The former Arsenal player was a constant threat in the game. He found spaces in the opposition's half and punished them by providing an assist for Salah 32nd goal this season.

Mohamed Salah - 8/10

Yet again, a wonderful performance from the Egyptian. The visitors made it tough for the front three to score but it wasn't long before Salah put the ball in the back of the opposition's net.

Robert Firmino - 7.5/10

The Brazilian took some time to settle down and find his rhythm. He was influential in finding Mane from the tiniest of space available.

Sadio Mane - 7/10

Mane tried his best but was not getting enough space by the visitors. However, his persistence to find spaces earned him his 14th goal of the season.

Substitutes

Adam Lallana - 6/10

The Englishman came on in the 74th minute and was able to adjust to the pace of the game but couldn't make an impact.

James Milner - 6/10

Coming on in the final 10 minutes, Milner couldn't do much to influence the game.

Joel Matip - N/A

He came on for the final two minutes of the game.
