The England international was named captain in the absence of Virgil van Dijk in a much-changed side named by Arne Slot and led by example after being criticised for his display in a 2-2 draw against Manchester United last weekend.
Slot made eight changes after suffering just his second defeat in charge of the Reds in Wednesday’s League Cup semi-final first leg against Tottenham.
The Dutchman had warned the Premier League leaders that a trip to Anfield would be Accrington’s “Champions League final.”
Diogo Jota was left with a simple task to tap in from Darwin Nunez’s low cross to open the floodgates. Alexander-Arnold then doubled the lead with a hit into the top corner from outside the box. Jayden Danns made most of just his second appearance of the season to fire 14 minutes from time.
