Liverpool left it late again in a 2-1 win over Wolves with Roberto Firmino netting in the 84th minute to restore his team’s 16-point lead in the table with a 14th straight Premier League victory on Thursday night.

Sadio Mane was taken off with an apparent injury and replaced just after the half-hour mark by new arrival Takumi Minamino,
