Liverpool clashed heads with Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium earlier this evening as they hoped to earn a good result on their travels in the Premier League. The Reds made a dominant start to the game but were held to a scoreless draw at the half-time break.
Darwin Nunez opened the goal-scoring in the 49th minute before Diogo Jota put daylight between the two sides when he scored in the 70th minute. Jota got himself on the scoresheet again nine minutes later. Nunez ended up scoring another goal injury-time as Jurgen Klopp‘s men cruised to a dominant 4-0 away from home.
