LIVERPOOL
Liverpool maintained their six-point lead at the top of the Premier League as Cody Gakpo scored twice in a 4-1 thrashing of Ipswich.
Kieran McKenna’s side, beaten 6-0 by Manchester City last weekend, were subjected to another bruising afternoon at Anfield, with Dominic Szoboszlai’s 11th-minute strike from the edge of the box setting the tone for the rampant hosts.
Mohamed Salah extended their lead when he slammed home a clinical finish from an acute angle following a Gakpo cross for his 100th Premier League goal at Anfield.
