Gareth McAuley and Romelu Lukaku scored late goals as West Brom scored a remarkable victory at Liverpool to a end a sequence of six games without victory in the Premier League.

The away side, managed by former Reds assistant boss Steve Clarke, weathered sustained pressure from Liverpool, including a superb penalty save from Ben Foster to deny Steven Gerrard after 77 minutes.

That seemed to inspire Clarke's team, who went close from fit-again midfielder Youssouf Mulumbu before McAuley headed in Chris Brunt's corner nine minutes from the end.

Worse was to come for the hosts on a frustrating and freezing night at Anfield as substitute Lukaku broke forward, glided past Daniel Agger and shot beyond Pepe Reina.

The result not only ended the Baggies poor run but also lifted them a point above Liverpool into eighth place.
