SNAPPED! Liverpool already find way around new wall law

Liverpool have already found a way around the new wall law for victory over Norwich City.

Revised laws have been brought in for the 2019-20 season, which include preventing opposition players from interfering with the defensive team's wall.

When Liverpool won a free-kick against Norwich in a dangerous position, they showed a solution to get around the new law.

As Trent Alexander-Arnold measured up his set-piece, Georginio Wijnaldum, Fabinho and Firmino positioned themselves a metre in front of the wall.

Their own one blocked Canaries keeper Tim Krul's vision as Alexander-Arnold's lethal effort was struck.
