Premier League leaders Liverpool withdrew an early scare to sweep and maintain their 100% start to the season with a different attacking display.
Sadio Mane was their go-to guy, scoring in the first half once Jetro Willems’ nice primary target for Newcastle had awarded Steve Bruce’s side a shock lead.
Mohamed Salah included a third with the third member of Liverpool’s attacking trinity Roberto Firmino resisting the show with a superb performance in the seat and providing two brilliant aids.
The Reds have won 14 league games in a row at a run that goes back into a draw at Everton at March – the joint third-best winning run in English top-flight history – and go five points clear at the top, together with second-placed Manchester City playing at the night game.
Newcastle never jeopardized to construct on their surprise lead – which came with their only shot – and also could not get near the European winners for substantial intervals of a game that was one-sided.
They remain in 16th place.
The spotlight was on Mane and Salah at Burnley out time after their disagreement.
However back on the front of home ground Liverpool three were on exactly the identical page and yet proved the difference.
Firmino played an hour for Brazil in Los Angeles in midweek morning, at a game that finished at about 06:00 BST on Wednesday, and the strategy was supposed to give him a relaxation as Divock Origi.
However an injury for the Belgium striker meant the Brazil striker was introduced earlier than anticipated.
Mane had equalised by there, curling into the corner and collecting a pass.
For those paying attention, Salah celebrated with a punch of the atmosphere.
Firmino slipped in Mane with a pass and subsequently slaughtered Christian Atsu. Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka must have promised it but pushed it back towards Mane to allow the Liverpool using a tap-in because of his 19th goal in his last 21 Premier League looks.
Firmino was more remarkable, before putting up the quiet Salah with a assist laying on chances for his full-backs.
Receiving the ball back to goal, the Brazil player hauled the ball backheeled it into the route of Salah, who did the rest.
Manchester City’s record of 18 wins in a row stays on the agenda for Liverpool – as does Chelsea’s record of eight wins in a row at the start of a Premier League season.
