And that, ladies and gentlemen, is that.

Crystal Palace came into today as major underdogs to this so-called Liverpool super team, and they leave dancing back to south London with a second trophy for their cabinet.

A good day for them, I would say.

It didn't start that way, though. Liverpool got off to a flyer when Hugo Ekitike netted his first goal for the club just four minutes into his competitive debut.

It then seemed like the new-look Reds could romp to victory as they glided through Palace like a hot knife through marmalade (which is better than butter) on the regular.
