Liverpool put an end to their six-match Premier League losing streak with a vital 2-1 win over Aston Villa at Anfield.

Ollie Watkins opened the scoring late in the first half – his second goal against the Reds this season, when his shot squared off Alisson and into the net.
Roberto Firmino thought he had pulled the Reds back into the match only for a VAR review to cancel the goal.
The Reds came into second half with more urgency and had their efforts rewarded when Salah headed the ball into the net to put the scores level.
Embattled Trent Alexander would seal the winner late in the match with a rocketing shot that flew past Emiliano Martinez.
