00:00They are required to go again, this time against Championship High Flyers Southampton.
00:06It's a chance for Anfield to welcome back the Carabao Cup winners.
00:14Here is a debut for 18-year-old striker Louis Kumas.
00:19Starts for James McConnell and Bobby Clark.
00:21Five other teenagers on the bench.
00:23Six changes for them, eight for the Saints, who seem preoccupied with trying to earn promotion.
00:27There are still two players who performed at the World Cup, Ednarek and Suleymane.
00:35Joel Rothwell alone from Bournemouth will get this tie underway.
00:42Do you make your former club favourites tonight, Steve?
00:46Yes, but only because they're playing at Anfield, John, to be very honest.
00:50Eribo playing it through, early chance here, and a goal after 27 seconds.
00:56But the joy will be cut short.
00:58I think suspected that a flag would go up.
01:02Yeah, I think he clearly was outside, wasn't he?
01:10Eribo.
01:11Did pretty well, Eribo.
01:17And the base of the post, Southampton, Suleymane.
01:23Yeah, Harvey Elliott gets caught.
01:25And Eribo does really well, drop at the shoulder both times onto his left.
01:30Slips in, Suleymane, who comes back onto his right.
01:34He just can't bend it into that far corner.
01:37This is Mara, and Kelleher is called upon.
01:46And Southampton have had a couple of...
01:48And Southampton with a chance.
02:11Suleymane.
02:16Inside of Kwanzaa.
02:18And within range.
02:20Couldn't squeeze it beyond Kelleher.
02:23Shocked Liverpool with a 4-1 win.
02:26Suleymane's kick.
02:32Elliott.
02:32Besides, he'll try one, and it required a helping hand from Lumley.
02:40Yeah, good hit by Harvey Elliott.
02:42Saw it all the way, Lumley.
02:44It's fading away as he hits it with the outside of his left foot.
02:47Just got a little bit of fade on it.
02:50Does what was needed to keep it.
02:51Just palms it.
02:55Simikas.
02:57Clark.
02:58Koumás.
03:04Koumás gets the shot away.
03:06Maybe a deflection en route.
03:09But Louis Koumás celebrates his senior Liverpool debut with the opening goal.
03:16Yeah, and that's what you do if you don't take your chances, Southampton.
03:23You get punished at the other end.
03:27Very, very proud moment for Louis Koumás.
03:31And his family.
03:33His father, of course.
03:34Liverpool speed it up between Koumás, Simikas, Bobby Clark here.
03:41This was a nice ball, actually.
03:43Fizzed in.
03:44He's onside.
03:46Turns.
03:47Attacks.
03:48Does get a little touch, isn't it?
03:51Off Bednarek.
03:53Just changes the angle.
03:54We'll see from this angle how much it changes from the goalkeeper.
03:58You see the 35 just ticks out.
04:00Yeah, it just...
04:01Off his heel.
04:02A very special moment for the Koumás clan.
04:06Because I think his father, Jason, actually started off as a junior at Liverpool.
04:10Never quite made the grade here.
04:11Yeah.
04:12Again, they lose the ball again in an awful area.
04:15And it's Koumás again.
04:17And Gatpo...
04:25And it is that Louis Koumás debut goal that separates these two sides at the midway point.
04:32Southampton looking for a dozy.
04:38Southampton looking for a dozy.
04:39And it's Mara!
04:41And behind him was Suleymane.
04:44Beyond the chase.
04:48Ending off ultimately by Koumás.
04:51Elliott.
04:57Elliott.
04:59Gomez.
05:02With Elliott again.
05:05Some move from Liverpool.
05:07It's Gatpo.
05:09Would have been a picture-book goal.
05:10Rockwell.
05:21He's now Liverpool with a little bit more experience on the centre of the park and Alexis McAllister than Jadon.
05:27Ryan Manning.
05:37Chance for chance.
05:41Leon, none of it.
05:46Makes that involving Smallbone.
05:48Let's in Elliott.
05:49It stands to lovely finish.
05:54Presence of mind.
05:55Cuteness of touch.
05:57And Dan's able to celebrate in front of a pack club.
06:01Yeah, what a lovely moment for Jadon Dan's as well.
06:14Louis Koumás in the first half.
06:21And that's how you finish.
06:22Lovely movement by Dan's.
06:24Harvey Elliott slips in at the right time.
06:26This is poor by Smallbone.
06:28Don't take chances like that.
06:29Blinds.
06:29That's an awful pass.
06:31Let's see if he's onside.
06:33Good movement.
06:33He can dance.
06:34He's way onside.
06:37Jack Stephens playing him way onside.
06:39Didn't step forward at all.
06:40And he did whatever good centre-forward should do.
06:43Take your time.
06:45Awareness.
06:47Knows that the goal can't.
06:53Get a curve.
06:54Dan's has pulled away.
06:59Gakpo used him as a foil.
07:09Bradley.
07:11And Dan's on the follow-up.
07:13Beyond down now.
07:20Liverpool.
07:21With a very youthful call.
07:23Klopp's kids as they're now known.
07:25As have stepped up to the mark yet again.
07:27I think Southampton have flattered to deceive.
07:29As long as they kept promotion.
07:30Russell Martin will be happy.
07:33So quite the night.
07:34For the teenage Tyros.
07:36Good enough.
07:36Let's go.
07:37Let's go.
07:38Let's go.
07:39Wee.
07:41Wee.
07:42Wee.
07:45Wee.
07:48Wee.
07:48Wee.
