Liverpool arrived at the Hammers stadium realizing that if they prevented defeat, they would extend their unbeaten run to 26 games, breaking Bob Paisley’s team’s all-time record set in 1982.
West Ham took the lead in the fourth minute when Alisson, under tension from Angelo Ogbonna as he leapt for the ball, headed home Fornals’ corner.
Diogo Jota, who started in place of the injured Roberto Firmino, had a chance to equalize on the half-hour.
When Liverpool were scored a contentious freekick with five minutes remaining, Alexander Arnold scored a fantastic freekick.
Dawson’s header hit the crossbar early in the second half, while Sadio Mane’s volley was saved by Fabianski.
Then, in the 67th minute, Bowen broke the Liverpool defense after Dawson and Rice snuck the ball away for West Ham from inside their own half.
Kurt Zouma then headed in a third goal, which was enough for West Ham despite Divock Origi’s goal with seven minutes remaining for Liverpool.
David Moyes now has his first win over Klopp in eight attempts, and Liverpool has moved into the top three.
