West Brom recorded their first win at Anfield since 1967 as Liverpool were made to pay for their extraordinary wastefulness in front of goal.<br /><br />The Reds laid siege to the Albion goal throughout, with Jordan Henderson striking the underside of the bar and Dirk Kuyt the inside of the post.<br /><br />But they were stunned when Glen Johnson's error let in Peter Odemwingie to fire past Pepe Reina on 75 minutes.<br /><br />Liverpool have now won only five of their 17 home league games this season. <br /><br />It is a poor return for a team of Liverpool's pedigree and resources but, once again, Kenny Dalglish's team were the instigators of their own downfall as chance after chance went begging.<br /><br />The victory moves Albion up to tenth in the table, just two places and one point behind Liverpool, who have taken only seven points from their last 10 games.<br /><br />In total, the Reds had 28 shots to their opponent's nine, and 15 corners to the Baggies' three.<br /><br />But the only statistic that will concern West Brom will be the scoreline, and their manager Roy Hodgson will take considerable pleasure from a victory over the club he managed for just 191 days.<br /><br />Despite his ill-fated spell at Anfield, he received a warm reception from the same Liverpool fans he struggled to win over before being sacked midway through last season.<br /><br />Liverpool made all the early running and should have taken the lead after 10 minutes when Luis Suarez threaded a pass into the path of Kuyt, who side-footed wide of the far post. <br /><br />The Reds thought they should have been awarded a penalty when Maxi Rodriguez went down under contact from Billy Jones, but referee Neil Swarbrick waved away the appeals.<br /><br />The onslaught continued as Maxi's cross was headed harmlessly wide by Andy Carroll, Liam Ridgewell blocked a goal-bound Suarez shot and Maxi blazed over the bar after Foster had saved from Suarez.<br /><br />The Baggies had offered little threat until the 28th minute, but when their first chance came it was a clear one.<br /><br />Shane Long headed Jonas Olsson's long ball
