The combination of Luis Suarez and Sturridge kept troubling the defence of Swansea as they converted another goal through their midfielder, Henderson, with a brace at the edge of the box.
The game appeared to have already been lost for Swansea, but Junjo Shelvey brought back hope with a terrific first shot after the Red’s second goal.
