Leicester City proved Claudio Ranieri's sacking was the correct decision with a 3-1 win over Liverpool on Monday evening.
The Reds never got into the game, and found themselves three goals behind after Jamie Vardy struck a brace either side of Danny Drinkwater's wonderful long-range volley.
Philippe Coutinho pulled one back for Jurgen Klopp's side late on, but they never looked likely to get back into the match.
The result leaves Liverpool in fifth, although they can drop down to sixth place in the Premier League table should Manchester United win their game in hand.
