Who was Liverpool’s best player against Watford?

Liverpool were denied three points against Watford by a controversial last-gasp equaliser after a second-half fightback at Vicarage Road.

The Reds were defensively poor throughout and fell behind to Stefano Okaka’s unmarked header on eight minutes.

Sadio Mane superbly equalised before the home side went back in front through Abdoulaye Doucoure amid mayhem in the Liverpool box.

Jurgen Klopp’s men were substantially better in the second half, turning the game around with a Roberto Firmino penalty and a debut goal from Mohamed Salah.

But after the visitors squandered numerous chances to seal the win, Miguel Britos bundled home from a corner in stoppage time to rescue a point.

Replays showed the centre-back to be in an offside position.

Who stood out on a disappointing afternoon?

You’ll be shown two players below, just pick who you think had the better game and we’ll go ‘Winner stays on’ style until the end.
