Late goals by Andrew Robertson and Mane earned Klopp's men a dramatic comeback victory at Villa Park.

Trezeguet put Villa in front after 21 minutes and despite Liverpool piling on the pressure, it looked as if it might not be their day.

But Robertson stormed forward to head in with three minutes remaining, before Mane glanced in Trent Alexander-Arnold's corner four minutes into stoppage time to complete an incredible turnaround.
