Lowly Swansea stuns Liverpool as rare Anfield loss dents title bid

Liverpool hadn't lost a Premier League match at Anfield in nearly a year, and Saturday's clash with relegation-threatened Swansea City wasn't supposed to threaten that mark in the slightest.

Someone forgot to tell Fernando Llorente.

The big Spaniard scored twice in a manic second half, and after Roberto Firmino netted a brace of his own to level matters, Gylfi Sigurdsson scored the winner to give Paul Clement a crucial win, and consign Jurgen Klopp to a potentially crippling defeat in his club's pursuit of the league crown.

The home setback is Liverpool's first in the Premier League in 370 days, and signals the first time the Swans have ever beaten the Reds in Merseyside.

Defeat could see Liverpool fall 10 points adrift of Chelsea if the league leader wins Sunday against Hull, while Swansea has climbed out of the relegation zone for the time being.
