Nods home from corner
van Dijk scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 5-2 victory versus West Ham United.
Analysis: van Dijk rose highest and nodded home from a corner to add a second goal during Saturday's rout of West Ham. The center-back has played in 99 of the last 100 Premier League matches for Liverpool and is a rock at the back. The defender is one of the best in the league and has some decent offensive threat with Liverpool's good record on set-pieces.
Nets winner
van Dijk scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) in Wednesday's 1-0 victory against Sunderland.
Analysis: van Dijk scored the only goal during Wednesday's 1-0 win over Sunderland. The big center-back rose highest and nodded home from a corner kick to break the deadlock. It was one-way traffic throughout and Van Dijk was brilliant mopping up play and keeping the game in control after taking the lead.
