Comments:

League position: 9th Adam Lallana had now scored in two of his last three Premier League games after not scoring in his previous 19 league appearances. The Reds had now conceded two or more goals in four of their last five Premier League games. Manager Jurgen Klopp missed this game having had surgery to remove his appendix in the morning. Jordon Ibe replaced Joe Allen in the first minute of added time in the first half.

Comments:

League position: 19th Sunderland had now scored in eight consecutive top division away games for the first time since 1964. 33 year-old Jermain Defoe had now scored six goals in his last six Premier League appearances.
