Liverpool yesterday (Saturday) saw Manchester City win a small and important 0: 1 against Chelsea and open a very serious gap at the top of the table.
Today against full-fledged Anfield without Muhammad Salah and Sadio Mana who are in the African Championship, the Mighty Reds wanted to reduce the gap from the champions to 11 points, with one more game missing.
In contrast to 3: 3 against Brentford in the first round, this time Jürgen Klopp's team came very concentrated, sharp and managed to defeat their opponent 0: 3 without difficulty.
Fabigno hit the first for the hosts in the 44th minute after a corner kick.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain doubled the lead in the 69th minute, and Takumi Minamino set up the game in the 77th minute, three minutes after coming on as a substitute.

Leeds achieved a very important away win over West Ham.
Marcelo Bailesa's side realized they needed to wake up so as not to get entangled in bottom fights and at least until the next round they could breathe a sigh of relief, much thanks to Jack Harrison scoring an amazing hat-trick that kept him and his team-mates nine points off the red line.
Jarrod Bowen and Pablo Fornales scored for the Hammers but did not have enough in front of the display of the visiting midfielder.
