Liverpool 3 – 0 Southampton | The Reds recorded their best start to a season by cruising past a spirited Southampton side. Liverpool took the lead in bizarre fashion as Xherdan Shaqiri's shot deflected off Shane Long and then Wesley Hoedt for an own goal. Joel Matip headed in from a corner in the 21st minute to double the lead. Mohammed Salah secured all three points just before the break when Shaqiri's free-kick came off the crossbar for him to tap in from close range. (Image: Reuters)
