Social Zone: Steven Gerrard helps Liverpool’s quadruple hopes, plus tennis star goes crazy in Rome
Liverpool kept their Premier League title hopes alive with a 2-1 victory over Steven Gerrard’s Aston Villa.
The Reds picked up a vital 2-1 win at Villa Park as goals from Joel Matip and Sadio Mane overturned an early deficit.
The result moved Jurgen Klopp's men level on points with Manchester City, meaning the Reds still have a narrow window of opportunity should the Citizens slip up in their remaining three games of the season.
Following the match, one man who wasn't particularly impressed with the officiating was Villa boss Steven Gerrard.
Reporter: "He's retiring at the end of the season."

Just take a quick pause and think about this record-breaking attendance of 70,000+ for tonight's FA Youth Cup final between Manchester United and Nottingham Forest.
To put that into context, there were only 56,000 fans for Barcelona's La Liga game last night against Celta Vigo. Incredible.
70,000 Man Utd fans will be at Old Trafford tonight to cheer our Under 18s to victory in the FA Youth Cup Final.
