Relive Standard Sport's coverage of Liverpool's Premier League clash with Newcastle at St. James' Park.

Martin Skrtel scored his seventh Premier League own goal as the relegation-threatened Magpies upset Jurgen Klopp's si8de.

The sliding defender deflected a Georginio Wijnaldum effort into his own net in the 69th minute at St. James' Park to give Liverpool manager Klopp his first away defeat in the league.

Liverpool, who thrashed Bournemouth 6-1 midweek in the League Cup quarter-finals, thought they had equalised against the Magpies with 10 minutes left but Alberto Moreno's impressive strike was harshly ruled out for offside.

Wijnaldum added a second for the hosts in stoppage time.
