Liverpool's big money summer signing has come good on his Anfield debut.

After a promising opening 25 minutes from newly promoted AFC Bournemouth, Eddie Howe has seen his side fall behind when Christian Benteke pounced to give Liverpool the lead with a close-range finish.

The linesman missed it, and if the new rules are to be followed it should have been chalked off.

Christian Benteke won't care though, he's off the mark for his new club.
