Liverpool began their title defence with heartfelt tributes to Diogo Jota and his brother André Silva . The stadium observed a moment of silence, displayed tributes such as “DJ20,” and Liverpool fans sang “You’ll Never Walk Alone” in a deeply moving remembrance. Jota’s family was in attendance
Hugo Ekitiké, signed from Eintracht Frankfurt, marked his debut with an opening goal and Cody Gakpo added another after the break. Antoine Semenyo pulled Bournemouth level with two goals and Arne knows he has defensive frailties to deal with. However Federico Chiesa restored the lead by his first Premier League goal( which he dedicated to Diogo) and Salah started his quest for yet another Golden Boot by scoring in the 90th minute. Happy ending for Liverpool.
