Mason Mount’s first-half goal helped Chelsea to victory over Liverpool in the Premier League at Anfield on Thursday night as the Blues moved back into the top four in the standings.
Chelsea, who came into the match unbeaten in nine games since Thomas Tuchel took over, looked to have taken the lead when Timo Werner latched onto a ball over the top of the Liverpool defence and beat an onrushing Alisson. However, the goal was ruled out for a very narrow offside call after video review.
Mount fired the visitors into the lead before half-time with an exquisite strike from the top of the penalty area after N’Golo Kante picked him out with a long ball on a counter-attack.
