Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool lurched to another painful and potentially costly defeat as Hull secured a famous 2-0 win at the KCOM Stadium.
Klopp's sorry recent record now shows just one win from Liverpool's last 10 games in all competitions after goals from Alfred N'Diaye and substitute Oumar Niasse gave Marco Silva's men a mighty boost.
Signed on loan from Inter Milan last month, Andrea Ranocchia produced an immense display on his full debut to repeatedly shut down the visitors' sporadic attacks before threading the stunning late through-ball from which Niasse put the game beyond doubt.
Ranocchia had only been elevated to the starting line-up after Michael Dawson was injured in the warm-up and both his performance and those of fellow debutants N'Diaye and Kamil Grosicki suggest Silva's men have survival in their sights.
The new Tigers boss has imbued his side with belief and confidence and it was evident at both ends of the pitch, in contrast to Klopp's men who failed abjectly to make their portions of pressure tell.
