00:00Following City's stunning loss to Brighton earlier in the day,
00:03Liverpool were looking to extend their advantage atop the league standings.
00:08And it was Darwin Nunez who got the Reds off on the right foot against Aston Villa.
00:12...no foul, still with Nunez, and he makes Villa play.
00:18Sometimes erratic, difficult to predict,
00:21but on this occasion, back in front of the Kop, utterly lethal.
00:26Not long after, the Uruguayan was in all alone
00:29once again, but this time, the same composure wasn't on display.
00:33Darwin Nunez!
00:36Well, some would say, perhaps cruelly, that that's more typical.
00:39Meanwhile, Villa had their chances,
00:41but Kaveen Kelleher was sharp when called upon.
00:44Goalkeeper there again!
00:47Certainly the closest that Villa have come.
00:49And they'd come awfully close just after the break as well.
00:53Rodgers goes through and fails to hit the target.
00:57Nunez continued to be Liverpool's biggest threat,
01:00but goal number two was proving difficult.
01:03That's a great chance.
01:04It really is, too.
01:05Coming in, Villa had lost three straight in all competitions
01:09and were unable to find an equaliser before the Reds broke free
01:13once more to secure all three points.
01:16Salah in the clear, two red shirts up with him.
01:20Chance to seal the deal for Liverpool.
01:22Mohamed Salah does just that.
01:25The incomparable and probably irreplaceable Mohamed Salah.
