Triumph over the Saints has saved Liverpool in the chase for a best four completion.

Sadio Mane put the Reds on their way against his previous club. However, Jurgen Klopp's side had Alisson to thank for keeping them in front as the Brazilian goalkeeper delivered various significant recoveries.

Thiago said of the South American shot-plug and his worth to the aggregate reason: "We have perhaps the best goalkeeper on the planet here with us.

"Furthermore, the folks in front are scoring as well as protecting, so we have this equilibrium that made us dominate matches.

"Particularly here at Anfield, we have had numerous circumstances that they [the opposition] scored an objective; even though we overwhelmed the game, they cut, and afterwards we separate a piece.

"With this outcome, 1-0, we get a piece, I would say, rushed [but] luckily we could score the subsequent one to carry a touch of quiet to the game."
