Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp left the touchline at The Hawthorns with three points and frayed nerves after Roberto Firmino scored the only goal against West Brom.
And once again Roberto Firmino proved to be the match victor as they reclaimed third spot in the league from Manchester City.
They are unbeaten since losing at Leicester in late February and now lead fourth-placed Manchester City by two points, although Pep Guardiola's team have a game in hand in the race for an automatic spot in the Champions League group stage.
The win is even more freakish when you consider the fact that Liverpool scored from a set piece. There was a sense of irony that West Brom ended up getting undone in that department.
"We've got to be better than that".
Coutinho soon dragged an effort wide from the edge of the box for Liverpool, before Hal Robson-Kanu sent his strike straight at Simon Mignolet down the other end after being played in on goal by Jake Livermore.

In second-half stoppage time, West Brom sent goalkeeper Ben Foster up for a corner but Liverpool claimed possession.

The Brazilian nodded in a first-half victor to settle an unremarkable game and extend the Reds' unbeaten Premier League run to seven matches.
Roberto Firmino's victor lifted them to third in the race for Champions League qualification after a 1-0 triumph on Sunday. "I would have been happy for him, actually, if he'd scored this goal, but [there was] excitement until the end, which is pretty much always the way it is when we are involved".
Tony Pulis' side have 44 points, at least equalling their final points total from the past three seasons and just five points behind their best ever Premier League tally set in 2012-13.
But West Brom boss Tony Pulis, who has now seen his side fail to score in their last four games, was unhappy with Foster. "Coming here to a place we know each set-piece is a major threat, we did great", he said.
