Liverpool vs Bournemouth LIVE SCORE: Gakpo doubles the Reds' lead after Ekitike's strike in Prem opener

And Cody Gakpo doubled Liverpool's lead with a sublime finish before paying a lovely tribute to Diogo Jota. just now By Sam Dymond Liverpool 2-0 Bournemouth 52. Liverpool keep on surging forward now, and Mac Allister almost makes it three with a stunning drive from 25 yards. In fact, only an equally impressive fingertip save from Petrovic keeps the Argentine from the scoresheet. 3 minutes ago By Sam Dymond Liverpool 2-0 Bournemouth 49. The champions are firing once more! This time Hugo Ekitike turns provider, laying the ball into the path of Cody Gakpo on the left of the penalty area. The Dutchman takes it upon himself to weave his way along the edge of the box, and when he sells Marcus Tavernier a dummy, the space opens up for him to caress the ball into the bottom corner of Djordje Petrovic's goal. Lovely stuff! 4 minutes ago By Sam Dymond Cody at the Kop! 27 minutes ago Ken Lawrence on Antonine Semenyo abuse There always has to be an idiot. On a night so full of emotion around the tragic death of Liverpool striker Diogo Jota, amidst a belter of a game with Bournemouth really impressive on the counter before Hugo Ekitike's fine Prem debut goal, the last thing the occasion needed was a racist comment. But that is what Antoine Semenyo reported to referee Anthony Taylor that he heard from the crowd. The guilty party or parties should be ashamed of themselves. Disgraceful. 28 minutes ago By Sam Dymond Liverpool 1-0 Bournemouth 42. Milos Kerkez goes into Anthony Taylor's book. The new Liverpool left-back has been diving into challenges all night, and it was only a matter of time before he got one wrong.

A first Premier League goal for Hugo Ekitike! The striker has been all action this evening and deserves this breakthrough strike, and it's one that - unsurprisingly - he makes himself. Dropping deep to exchange passes with Virgil van Dijk, the Frenchman then finds Alexis Mac Allister in space. Receiving a return ball, Ekitike then attempts to nick it past Marcos Senesi on the edge of the Bournemouth penalty area. When the ball this time falls kindly for the new Liverpool man, he bears down on Djordje Petrovic and cooly wrongfoots him with a side-footed finish. 35 minutes ago By Sam Dymond Hugo boss!
