FT: LEICESTER CITY 3-1 LIVERPOOL
Salah handed Liverpool the lead in the 67th minute, latching onto Firmino's brilliant back-heel.
Maddison set the tone for the comeback, bending his free-kick towards the far post beating Alisson.
Within minutes, Leicester took the lead through Vardy.
Alisson and Kabak had a mix-up and the ball fell to the prolific forward to score possibly the easiest goal of his career.
Barnes finished the game off, racing clear of Kabak and firing low past Alisson – who can't seen to catch a break with the mistakes.
