Alexander Isak scored two goals in three minutes to give Liverpool a lightning-quick start against Ipswich Town.
Both goals were assisted by Cody Gakpo, who is beginning to form a good chemistry with the Swede.
For his first goal, Gakpo, who started on the left wing, made a brilliant run to the center, shoulder feigning past one before threading in a pass for Isak.
The former Newcastle man took one touch before smashing it into the back of the net—a brilliant finish.
The second goal came just a few minutes later. Cody Gakpo this time produced a sensational trivela assist for Isak.
Isak still had plenty to do and he did, as he showed extreme composure before slotting it past the keeper.

Despite the big-money arrival of Bradley Barcola, Liverpool must resist any temptation to part ways with Cody Gakpo.
The Dutch international’s seamless link-up play with Alexander Isak highlights his immense value to the squad’s tactical flexibility.
Rather than rendering him redundant, Barcola’s signing gives Liverpool world-class depth across the frontline.
Gakpo’s ability to create moments of magic, such as his sensational trivela assist, proves he remains an essential part of Liverpool’s attack under Iraola.
