Coach Jürgen Klopp has celebrated the first win of the season in the English Premier League with Liverpool FC. Just under a week after the 1-1 start at Chelsea, the Reds won their home game against AFC Bournemouth 3-1 (2-1).

With four points from the first two games, Liverpool started better than last season (two points). The Klopp team had to cope with an early deficit when Antoine Semenyo conceded a goal (3rd minute) at the Anfield stadium.

An artistic move by attacker Luis Díaz, who in the 28th minute briefly lifted the ball after a pass from Diogo Jota and then shot the goal with a side kick, brought Liverpool back into the game. A penalty kick from offensive star Mohamed Salah (36th) made it 2-1. Previously, newcomer Dominik Szoboszlai, who had switched from RB Leipzig to Liverpool for 70 million euros before the season, was fouled in the penalty area.

After just under an hour, the hosts had to make do with a man fewer because Alexis Mac Allister saw the red card for gross foul play. Outnumbered, the conspicuous Diogo Jota (62nd) scored the goal to make it 3-1.
