Liverpool fans react to Burnley win – and farcical goalkeeper situation

Liverpool edged past Burnley to pick up their first Boxing day victory under Brendan Rodgers’ reign, having lost at Stoke and Man City in previous years.

The nightmare after Christmas was avoided thanks to Raheem Sterling’s well taken second half goal, but for a long time especially in the first half it looked like being another disappointing festive result.

Thankfully, Sterling’s goal saved the day and gave Liverpool the three points at Turf Moor. Although, a lot of the post match focus was on other areas of the side.
