HEADING FOR GLPORY

Dutch duo nod Kop four points clear

JUST when it looked like tension title-race was threatening to trip up Liverpool, a double Dutch turnaround in 125 seconds helped extend their lead at the top of the table.

Anfield was a bag of nerves for 45 minutes. The hosts were a goal down to Luton and fans feared the worst.

Had they never been here before? Jurgen Klopp wanted it to be like a European night under the lights.

Maybe he wasn't meaning the need for a comeback but he got it even if it was against relegation battlers and not a European giant.

Captain Virgil van Dijk was first to cancel out Chiedozie Ogbene's early opener as he showed his leadership to power in a 56th-minute header.

Then compatriot Cody Gakpo headed home soon after to dissolve the anxiety and turn it to ecstasy.

Luis Diaz secured the three points with the third. All within 15 minutes that had the stadium rocking.
