Liverpool took charge against Leeds with a stunning quick-fire brace from French striker Hugo Ekitike shortly after the halftime break. His two goals within the first five minutes of the second half marked the first instance of a player achieving this feat since Raheem Sterling for Manchester City in March 2019.

The score remained at 2-0 in favor of Liverpool as the match approached the 70-minute mark. Ekitike's tally this season stands at eight goals from 21 appearances, accompanied by one assist.
