CB: Virgil van Dijk – 7/10 –A commanding performance from the Dutch captain, who organised the defence in the game’s final minutes.
CB: Nathan Ake – 7/10 –Ake played a cool 90 minutes, easily neutralising Timothy Weah’s threat.
RWB: Denzel Dumfries – 9/10 –The wingback put on an outstanding effort, assisting on the first two goals and scoring the third.
