LW Philippe Coutinho (OFF 74′), 9 (MoM):

Before Liverpool got on the scoresheet, Coutinho was a beat off. He missed a sitter and misplaced passes by just a yard or two.

Then, as he does, clicked in to form and combined to create and assist Lallana’s goal.

In the second half, my word– what a brilliant goal from 25 yards out. Sublime from the magician in front of the Kop mere seconds after Hull got themselves on the scoresheet.

All in all, masterful performance from Liverpool’s no. 10.
