FT: Leeds 0-3 Liverpool. Salah's 100th PL goal and strikes from Fabinho and Mane move the Reds up to third, just behind leaders Man Utd on goals scored. Leeds had Struijk sent off for a challenge that led to what looked like a serious injury to Harvey Elliott.
Trent Alexander Arnold takes aim from 25 yards out but drags his shot well wide of target.
LIVERPOOL CHANGE: Keita on for Thiago.

GOAL! Mane finally gets his goal. It's met by a relieved grin from the forward as he takes Thiago's wonderful cut back from Henderson's cross and lashes it into the corner.

The Travelling Kop are cheering a spell of keep-ball from their side.
Eight minutes added due largely to that injury to Elliott.
A flurry of Liverpool corners come to nothing.
Mane jinks in from the left. He twists and turns and sees a shot deflect wide. He looks hugely frustrated. It's been one of those days for him in front of goal it seems.
How Liverpool haven't got at least three or four goals here is beyond this scribe. Leeds could have taken a serious beating on another day.
STAT via OPTA: Since the start of last season, Liverpool have scored more Premier League goals via corners than any other team (13).
SAVE! Alisson scampers back towards his own line and just about tips Bamford's sensational long-range lob over the bar.
LIVERPOOL CHANGE: Oxlade-Chamberlain on for Jota.

SAVE! Meslier gets a touch on Mane's shot to divert it behind after the forward was provided with another gilt-edged chance to get on the scoresheet. He's had a fair few this evening.
Great to see.
Liverpool continue to threaten a third. This time Meslier gathers at the second attempt after initially flapping at Henderson's first-time strike from 20 yards out.
Salah sends Mane free. His first touch is poor and he is forced slightly wide, allowing him to be chased down and blocked as he looked to pull the trigger and make it three.
STAT: Leeds are at risk of failing to win any of their first four top-flight matches in a season for the first time since 1958-59.
There's a subdued mood in Elland Road. The fans clearly saddened by the worrying reaction of players and staff to that Elliott injury.
