Liverpool beats Wolves 1-0, Patricio OK after head knock

Diogo Jota scored the winner against his former club as Liverpool beat Wolverhampton 1-0 in an English Premier League match that ended with Wolves goalkeeper Rui Patricio being carried off with a head injury on Monday.

Jota, who spent three years at Wolves before joining Liverpool in September, drove in a low, first-time shot that squirmed into the corner in the second minute of first-half stoppage time. Patricio got a hand to the ball but failed to keep it out at his near post. The goalkeeper didn’t finish the game after being struck on the head in the 87th minute by the knee of teammate Conor Coady, who was running back into his area.
