Liverpool maintained their impressive scoring streak in pre-season as they convincingly defeated Leicester 4-0 in Singapore. Under the guidance of Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool has netted four goals in each of their three warm-up matches, having previously triumphed 4-2 against Karlsruher and battled to a 4-4 draw with Greuther Furth in Germany.
Liverpool dominated their pre-season encounter against Leicester, showcasing their superiority as they cruised to victory. Despite it being Leicester's last preparatory match before embarking on their first Championship campaign in ten years, Liverpool effortlessly secured a comfortable three-goal advantage by halftime.
Darwin Nunez opened the scoring on the half-hour mark when he scored his fourth goal in three games by turning in the rebound after Mads Hermansen saved Diogo Jota's effort.

Bobby Clark, the 18-year-old, doubled the score five minutes after starting in midfield alongside Alexis Mac Allister and Curtis Jones. In just three minutes, Jota increased the lead to 3-0 by heading the ball into the net after a one-two exchange with Mohamed Salah, marking his third goal in consecutive games.
At half-time, Klopp made 10 substitutions, one of them being the introduction of Dominik Szoboszlai who had recently recovered from an injury that prevented him from playing against Furth. The new signing came close to scoring a remarkable long-range lob. However, it was 17-year-old Scottish winger Ben Doak who secured Liverpool's fourth goal by converting Joel Matip's flick-on from Szoboszlai's corner.
