Anthony Elanga gave Newcastle United an early advantage over Liverpool, scoring inside the opening five minutes to hand Matthias Jaissle's side a promising start to the contest.
The winger struck with confidence and precision, cutting through Liverpool's defence to find the net and silence any early nerves at St. James' Park.
It marks a bright opening statement from Jaissle's Newcastle — a side still finding its shape under the new manager — as they look to press their case against one of the Premier League's top sides.
