Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp late Wednesday night celebrated his 200th Premier League win with his side’s 4-1 win over Chelsea at Anfield Wednesday night as the Reds continue to lead the league table, reports Prime Business Africa.

The highlight of the team’s victory was the performance of young Irish right back, Conor Bradley.

Bradley who is 20 years-old and 206 days old assisted and scored in the game, thus becaming the youngest player in the EPL to do so, marching the record set by Sterling when he was at Liverpool.

Bradley got the league leaders in the lead before assisting the goals scored by Diogo Jota and Dominik Szobozlai.

The Blues got one back through back-to-fitness forward, Christopher Nkunku but that evaporated with Luis Diaz putting the icing on the cake to make it a convincing affair.

Liverpool’s other title rivals Arsenal and Manchester City also picked up wins in the midweek schedules.

Arsenal defeated Nottingham Forest 2-1 on Saturday, Manchester City got the better of Burnley same evening with a 3-0 finish.
