Liverpool came from a one goal down to snatch home three points from Bournemouth at Anfield in Saturday’s English Premier League (EPL) fixtures.

Liverpool were fortunate with a penalty in the 36th minutes after Dominik Szoboszlai was brought down in the box.

Mohammed Salah who answered the call missed the kick but was lucky to smash in the ball a rebound making it 2-1.
