Liverpool's first half against Chelsea made fans remember the team that dominated the Premier League for most of the 2019-20 season, and such a performance came fueled by the goals scored by Naby Keita, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Georginio Wijnaldum.
While Keita and Wijnaldum dazzled with their goals, Alexander-Arnold's free kick stood out for the kind of shot he curled into Kepa Arrizabalaga's net and due to the fact that he became the first Liverpool player in history to score one goal for the Reds against Frank Lampard's crew on both games of the season via a set-piece situation.
During the first half of the season, Alexander-Arnold found the back of the net against Chelsea with a free kick. Today, the right back did the same thing at Anfield and gave fans something to talk about.

Alexander-Arnold scores a wonderful free-kick but Frank Lampard is NOT happy!
Was it a foul on Mane?

Alexander-Arnold's free kick expertise has made him quite a threat in that department, and he is also in great company when it comes to long-distance shots.
