Liverpool handily defeated Norwich City at Anfield when they welcomed the Championship squad. The Kop’s pressuring efforts paid off with the opening goal in the 16th minute. On a rare start, teenage midfielder James McConnell hung the ball with his left foot into the penalty area. Curtis Jones broke the offside trap and scored when no one was watching. 
The initial goal made Jurgen Klopp giggle, especially as the German military chief had recently announced his departure from Liverpool.”Good to see Klopp smiling again. McConnell provided an excellent pass, and Jones scored a beautiful header. I’m concerned for Norwich because the opener could be beyond their control. Liverpool really expected this goal.”Jones has scored four goals in the cup this season. He scored three goals in the Carabao Cup before netting a header against Norwich in the FA Cup.
