James Milner on 'brilliant' Firmino, unbeaten Anfield record and his door

James Milner was delighted to see Roberto Firmino cap off a powerful performance by Liverpool as they defeated Leicester City 3-0 on Sunday.

The Reds achieved a club-record 64th consecutive unbeaten league match at Anfield as a Jonny Evans own goal was followed by Diogo Jota’s eighth of the season and, in the final stages, a clinical header from Firmino.

Firmino had previously been denied by the post and a goalline clearance with the ball being millimetres from crossing the line – and Milner felt the No.9 fully deserved to eventually find the net.
