Liverpool - Liverpool substitute Daniel Sturridge capped his comeback from injury with a goal as the Reds beat West Ham United 2-0 at Anfield on Saturday following an inspired display by Raheem Sterling.
Sturridge had been available for the first time in a Premier League match since Liverpool's win over Tottenham Hotspur at the end of August.
The England international had been on the sidelines for five months with a combination of calf and thigh injuries.
But Sturridge's long battle to regain full fitness was rewarded with a typical goal after Sterling had put Liverpool ahead.
Sturridge had to settle for a place among the substitutes, although that was more than Mario Balotelli could manage, having once again failed to make manager Brendan Rodgers match day squad.
Rodgers also decided against risking Reds captain Steven Gerrard, struggling with a tight hamstring.
