Arne Slot began his tenure as Liverpool manager on a positive note with a 2-0 win over Ipswich Town on Saturday.

After a goalless first half, Liverpool emerged stronger in the second period.

Jota broke the deadlock on the hour mark. Just five minutes later, Salah finished off a well-executed team move, doubling Liverpool’s lead, ending Ipswich’s hopes of a comeback.

Despite having additional chances to extend the lead, Liverpool’s two goals were enough to ensure a comfortable victory.
