After halftime, Alisson was called into action again he made a stop from Arnaut Danjuma, who caused the Reds’ defence some problems with his directness on the ball.
Liverpool got themselves in front when the referee awarded a penalty following a VAR check on Donny van de Beek’s foul on Luis DÃaz, with Mohamed Salah making no mistake to score from the spot.
Liverpool looked in control from the moment they took the lead as Girona’s remaining chances were blocked and dealt with comfortably enough, allowing the Reds to hold on and register their sixth straight win in the league phase.
