Liverpool Crushes Aston Villa 6-0 In Daniel Sturridge’s First Start Since Injury

Liverpool was in irresistible form as it galloped to a resounding 6-0 victory over Aston Villa at Villa Park on Sunday afternoon.

It began when Daniel Sturridge needed just 16 minutes to make his mark on his first league start under Jurgen Klopp, netting clinically via his head from a Philippe Coutinho center.

James Milner then grabbed a second for the visitors soon after when his in-swinging free kick from the left evaded everyone in the box and found the corner of the goal.

Emre Can made it 3-0 just before the hour mark, collecting Roberto Firmino’s lay-off and arrowing an effort beyond Mark Bunn from the edge of the box.

Divock Origi and Nathaniel Clyne both converted within a two-minute spell shortly after, before Kolo Toure headed in from a corner to claim a sixth and put the seal on an afternoon to remember for the Reds in the Midlands.
