Liverpool striker Diogo Jota was delighted with his goal in victory over Burnley.

It marked Jota's first goal in front of a full house at Anfield.

Jota said, “I scored in a friendly game here but officially it's a different feeling – what it counts for, and I think it was a great way to start my first full Anfield campaign.

“The atmosphere is massive for us, I've played here as an away player and I know what it feels like. The fans are really important for us, we need to take advantage of that and I think today 2-0 was a good result, a clean sheet and the team is improving, and that's the most important thing.

“The first goal is always the hardest in a game, most of the times it is the one that unlocks the game and that's what we want to do. If it comes in the first half, that's massive for us because it gives us the opportunity to control the game differently."
