Liverpool victory over West Bromwich

It was far from pretty, but Liverpool bounced back from their midweek Champions League defeat in Basel to earn a much-needed 2-1 victory over West Bromwich Albion at Anfield. Goals from Adam Lallana - his first since his £25 million summer move - and Jordan Henderson sandwiched a Saido Berahino penalty for Liverpool's first win in the league since August. At the end of a lacklustre first half, Lallana played a neat one-two Rickie Lambert, who had started in place of misfiring Mario Balotelli, before finishing well past Ben Foster. Ten minutes after the break, West Brom were back on level terms when Berahino was too quick for Dejan Lovren, who upended the tricky forward in the box. Berahino picked himself up and sent Simon Mignolet the wrong way from the spot.
