Romelu Lukaku’s hat-trick was the 300th of the Premier League making him the highest goalscorer of the current season. The Belgian forward was in beast mode as he scored four goals making it look as easy as child’s play.
Chips, lobs and cheeky finishes summed up the 23-year-old’s night. His every move seemed to be the right one as he dribbled past defenders as he made all his goals look like child’s play.
Gabriel Jesus
The 19-year-old’s dream start in the Premier League continued as he netted Manchester City’s first goal of the night. Appearing out of nowhere, the Brazilian forward kicked the ball into the back of the net to give the Citizens the lead.
He came to his team's rescue yet again when it looked like they’d have to be content with a point. Even though his header was saved by the keeper, he palmed it clumsily into Jesus’s path who was in a prime position to score the winner.
Manager
Marco Silva
Marco Silva learned his lesson after their goalless draw against Manchester United last weekend and made five changes to his lineup for their game against Liverpool. The alterations worked wonders as the Tigers downed the Reds by two goals at the KCOM Stadium.
Sturdy defending and two providential goals later, Hull City injected life into their bid to survive relegation and burnt a hole in Liverpool’s title dreams.
