Premier League: Norwich v Liverpool – in pictures

Five times champions of Europe and quite possibly soon to be 19 times champions of England. First they must dispatch Norwich, then Chelsea, Crystal Palace and Newcastle in the coming weeks Photograph: Michael Regan/Getty Images

It doesn't take Liverpool long to cut Norwich open. Raheem Sterling scores the opening goal inside four minutes with a 30-yard shot seemingly from nothing which takes a small deflection on its way into the net Photograph: Michael Regan/Getty Images

Another blistering start for the Reds and one which has delighted their manager Brendan Rodgers Photograph: Michael Regan/Getty Images

And then Luis Suárez makes it 2-0 when he slots into the corner from close range following Sterling's low cross. That's his 12th goal in his last five appearances against Norwich Photograph: STEFAN WERMUTH/REUTERS

At 2-0 up Liverpool ought to be coasting, but Norwich are beginning to assert some pressure. Here, Norwich's Nathan Redmond tries to evade Liverpool's Glen Johnson Photograph: Paul Childs/Action Images

Norwich deservedly pull one back in the second half when the Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet fluffs a punched clearance ... Photograph: Michael Regan/Getty Images

But Sterling reestablishes Liverpool's two-goal advantage with a solo run from his own half which ends with his shot looping into the net via a wicked deflection off Bradley Johnson Photograph: Paul Childs/Action Images

And then Norwich score again to make it 3-2 and pile the pressure back on the would-be champions. Robert Snodgrass leapt brilliant to head the ball into the top corner Photograph: Michael Regan/Getty Images

Liverpool survive a real test of nerves in the closing stages to claim another precious win, their 11th in succession. The view from the top of the table must be making Reds fans giddy right now. Final score: 2-3 Photograph: Michael Regan/Getty Images
