Liverpool 4-1 Ipswich: Player ratings as Reds roar to rampant victory

Liverpool made light work of Ipswich Town on Saturday as they breezed to a dominant 4-1 victory at Anfield.
It took just ten minutes for the Reds to open the scoring. Ibrahima Konate’s through-ball sent Dominik Szoboszlai racing forwards, and the Hungarian cut inside before arrowing a low effort into Christian Walton’s bottom corner.
Mohamed Salah doubled Liverpool’s advantage by firing home from a tight angle after Cody Gakpo’s cross found him unmarked at the back post, and it was 3-0 at the break after the Dutchman bundled over the line.
Ipswich’s first shot of any kind came on the hour mark, with the visitors struggling to get any sort of footing in the game, and their task became even tougher when, six minutes later, Gakpo doubled his tally with a smart header from a Trent Alexander-Arnold cross.
Jacob Greaves grabbed a consolation goal in stoppage time with a powerful header from a corner, but it did little to dampen the mood around Anfield.
