Jurgen Klopp could not believe his eyes as four Liverpool players displayed first-class commitment late on during Monday's demolition of Leeds United.
It was a night to remember for the Reds at Elland Road, securing a 6-1 win to bring to an end a run of five games without a victory in all competitions.
Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah (2), Diogo Jota (2) and Darwin Nunez were all on target for the visitors, who produced football similar to the style fans have been accustomed to viewing in recent years of the Klopp era.

There was an early scare at the start of the second half when an Ibrahima Konate error allowed Leeds a way back into the game, with Luis Sinisterra punishing the Frenchman's lapse in concentration, but Liverpool responded with a further four strikes to put the game well out of reach.
Nunez completed the rout in the 90th minute of the match, having only been deployed from the bench nine minutes earlier, but Klopp's favourite moment of the contest arrived two minutes later after his team's sixth goal of the evening.
Watching on as Leeds forward Georginio Rutter took control of the ball, Klopp almost slid out of his chair in the dugout in disbelief after watching Luis Diaz, Thiago, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Nunez charge at the Frenchman to regain possession.
The Liverpool boss could be seen repeatedly saying 'Oh my god!' after seeing Nunez recover the ball, such was his admiration for the desire being shown despite his side leading by five goals with only two minutes of additional time remaining.
