Summer signing Darwin Nunez scored as Liverpool beat Premier League champions Manchester City 3-1 to claim the FA Community Shield at the King Power Stadium on Saturday.
The Uruguayan, bought from Benfica for an initial fee of €75 million, made himself an instant fan favourite after capping a lively appearance off the bench with a stoppage time goal to secure the first trophy of the season.
Despite being without Nunez in the first half, it was Liverpool who were quick to strike with Trent Alexander-Arnold opening the scoring in the 21st minute. His first-time strike took a slight deflection off the head of Nathan Ake and nestled in off the post.
Man City and Liverpool will compete in the Community Shield and remain streets ahead of the competition.
But who is @FabrizioRomano backing to prevail in the Premier League title race?#LIVMCI https://t.co/l5elFfCFSK
