Roberto Firmino scored twice as Liverpool came from behind to beat Burnley 4-2 at Anfield, and close the gap on Premier League leaders Manchester City to one point.
Ashley Westwood had scored directly from a corner inside the first 10 minutes, but Firmino's double came either side of Sadio Mane's smart finish before Johann Berg Gudmundsson's injury-time consolation strike - though Mane made the game safe with a 94th-minute goal.
Jurgen Klopp made two changes to the side that had been held in the Merseyside derby by Everton, with Firmino returning up front and Adam Lallana given only his fourth league start of the season.
The visitors, meanwhile, were unchanged, and got off to a dream start, albeit in controversial circumstances, when Westwood's corner curled all the way in at the far post, with James Tarkowski clearly obstructing Liverpool 'keeper Alisson.
You wondered whether a frustrating, nervy Anfield afternoon might prevail, but the Reds were on terms within a quarter of an hour when Mo Salah's cross squirmed between Tarkowski and Tom Heaton, leaving Firmino the simplest of tap-ins.
As the weather wreaked havoc, wind and hail swirling, the hosts took control, and when Charlie Taylor's superb tackle to deny Salah only rolled into the path of Mane, who dispatched emphatically into the far corner, they had the first-half lead their dominance deserved.
Liverpool might have had a third shortly after the break, when Mane slipped Firmino in, but the Brazilian's square pass for Salah had too much on it, and was taken by the wind, almost sneaking into the far corner.
But the points were safe on 68 minutes when Taylor once again saw a brilliant last-ditch tackle, this time on Mo Salah, end up teeing up a Red shirt as Firmino clipped home.
There was still time for Mane to produce a contender for miss of the season, somehow diverting Trent Alexander-Arnold's cross up over the bar from two yards out, and Gudmundsson's injury-time goal turned up the heat - until Mane made the game safe with seconds to go.
