Monday Recap

Despite losing Coutinho to a leg injury in the opening minutes at Vicarage Road, Liverpool remained composed and collected three points after a spectacular finish from Emre Can.

The versatile midfielder scored an overhead kick in stoppage time in the first half, producing one of the goals of the season.

The Germany international latched on to a deft chip from Lucas Leiva and finished with world-class precision.

B/R Football highlighted the impressive finish:

Watford edged their way back into contention in the second half, and Liverpool appeared nervous as the minutes ticked by.

Daniel Sturridge almost put the result to bed in the closing moments, but his shot was brilliantly saved by goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes.

The Hornets nearly ruined coach Jurgen Klopp's night in the final play of the match, with Sebastian Prodl smashing the woodwork with a powerful effort.

The victory gives the Reds a huge advantage over the Manchester clubs in the Premier League going into the final weeks of the campaign.

United and City both collapsed to shock draws on Sunday, giving Liverpool the edge in the race for UEFA Champions League qualification.
