Liverpool have eventually taken the lead against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane thanks to a first goal of the season for Virgil van Dijk.
The Reds have dominated the opening part of the game and created several chances, although not many have been clear-cut.
The goal came after 37 minutes from a corner kick. Trent Alexander-Arnold swung in a lovely cross and Van Dijk met it centrally to give his team the lead.
There was a short VAR check to see if there was a foul in the box but the goal stood as the Reds lead 1-0.
Finished like a striker! ?
