David Luiz shocked everyone when his cheeky free-kick took Mignolet by surprise, hit the woodwork and went into the net.
It was the Brazilian’s first goal since his return to Chelsea, and on scoring with a quick-thinking free-kick, he said: “Sometimes you need to try the surprise. I’m not in the best position to take free-kicks because my knee is hurting and I can’t train every day, but in a game you need to see the opportunity. I’m pleased I scored.”
The goal was a beauty, and even Jurgen Klopp had to admit that it was world-class.
