With so much going on at Anfield as Liverpool beat Crystal Palace 3-1, we have put together five moments you may have missed.
Alexander Isak, Andy Robertson and Florian Wirtz had the headlines as the Reds further cemented their place in the top five of the Premier League.
There was plenty happening aside from the main goalscoring action, though, as Daniel Munoz caused controversy, Liverpool fans protested and Freddie Woodman became an unlikely hero.

A year ago, playing for the Premier League champions and receiving the adulation of the Kop must have been a pipe dream for Woodman.
Against his boyhood club, Crystal Palace, the fourth-choice goalkeeper made five saves and carried on after hurting his knee with 20 minutes to play.
At full time, Robertson rightly pushed Woodman towards the Kop to take the acclaim of Liverpool’s supporters.
Daniel Munoz takes the Anfield ire

With Woodman down injured and Liverpool 2-0 up, Palace’s Munoz decided to chip the ball into the goal to pull one back for the visitors.
His choice was met with ire from the crowd and meant the Colombian was booed incessantly for the rest of the match.
At one point, when he went to take a throw-in, Munoz was hit by a ball that was thrown by a disgruntled fan in the Sir Kenny Dalglish stand.
Liverpool CEO Billy Hogan reacts to protests
With Liverpool fans all around Anfield raising their yellow cards and voicing their frustrations in protest at rising ticket prices, the worldwide TV cameras cut to CEO Billy Hogan in the directors’ box.
Hogan hid his expression behind a hand, while the man next to him showed no shame in appearing to laugh at the protest.
While the CEO didn’t exhibit too much emotion, having someone next to him who seemed to find the issue funny wasn’t a good look.
Joe Gomez stops for autographs

Liverpool players are very difficult to access, with matchdays in particular seeing them shuffled from place to place on a tight schedule.
There is occasionally a chance to meet them on their way home, though, as players leave in their cars from outside the Main Stand.
Joe Gomez took the time on Saturday to stop for autographs as he left the ground – nice one, Joe!
Poking fun at Pickford

Liverpool fans haven’t had a lot to shout about this season, so when we beat Everton with a late winner, forgive us for basking in it!
The Kop found time to poke fun at our neighbours’ goalkeeper, referencing Divock Origi‘s famous late winner when Pickford watched the ball bounce off the bar and into the striker’s path.
The ditty also referenced an occasion on which Everton announced Pickford as ‘England’s No. 1’, despite that not being a particularly big point of praise on Merseyside.
‘England’s No. 1,
‘He couldn’t touch the crossbar, he’s only got little arms!’
