Hull's cause wasn't helped when Ahmed Elmohamady was shown a straight red in the 29th minute for handball in the area, with his side already a goal down.

James Milner netted from the spot, and Sadio Mane made it 3-0 ten minutes before half-time.

The second period saw the Reds' dominance continue, and despite Hull's David Meyler netting a 51st minute consolation, Coutinho and then another Milner strike from the penalty spot secured an emphatic victory.

It is Liverpool's third straight win in the Premier League as they continue to impress with their attacking prowess.
