Virgil van Dijk’s thumping header against Atletico Madrid ensures yet another late Liverpool victory (Video)

Liverpool have won all five games they’ve played this season, securing the triumph rather late on every occasion so far.

The latest one came against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday. After Andy Robertson and Mohamed Salah struck early to provide a two-goal lead, the Merseysiders allowed the visitors from the Spanish capital to get back level, courtesy of a Marcos Llorente brace.

But it was Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk who had the last word, in the 92nd minute.
