Twitter reacts to game of the season between Liverpool and Norwich City

What a game

What a game.

Liverpool were famously involved in the possibly the best game in the Premier League era when they beat Newcastle 4-3 at Anfield back in 1996.

And today’s game against Norwich City could possibly be remembered 20 years ago from now, if not it has a strong claim to be considered the best game of the season.

Liverpool won the game at Carrow Road 5-4, coming from 3-1 down and winning the game with virtually the last kick of the game.

Roberto Firmino opened the scoring for the visitors mid way through the first half, before Dieumerci Mbokani equalised, and Steven Naismith gave Norwich the lead.

Wes Hoolahan extended the Canaries advantage from the penalty spot after some awful defending by Alberto Moreno. However, goals from Jordan Henderson, Firmino and James Milner brought Liverpool back into the lead

Before Sebastien Bassong equalised in the final minute.

Then Adam Lallana popped up in the final minute of injury time to win it, again, for Liverpool. What a game.giphy
