Andy Robertson has revealed that Liverpool only worked on their marvellous set-piece routine which saw them take the lead against Manchester City one day before the game.
The Reds opened the scoring after 14 minutes on Sunday, as Mo Salah bagged his 25th Premier League goal of the season.
It looked like a heavily rehearsed routine but Robertson mentioned post-match that Liverpool had only practiced it on Saturday.
.
Having been asked about Salah, Robertson told Match of the Day: "He's been unbelievable and obviously our set-piece routine worked which is pleasing for us.
Mo got the glory of putting it in the back of the net because we don't want anyone else over it like that."
Also after the win, which sent Liverpool 11 points clear at the top of the table, Arne Slot heaped praise on Liverpool coach Aaron Briggs, who was credited with the set-piece routine.
So, if we go to Villa away and they score [from a set piece] and we don't, it is so hard to win against a Villa or a Chelsea or an Arsenal.
