(CNN) -- Fernando Torres rediscovered his scoring touch as Liverpool continued their revival under new owners with a 2-0 win over English Premier League leaders Chelsea at Anfield on Sunday.
The Spanish star scored two magnificent first half goals to seal three points for Roy Hodgson's men.
The first came after 11 minutes as he instantly controlled a Dirk Kuyt through ball before beating Petr Cech with a low shot.
He doubled the advantage just before the interval as he cut inside before curling home a superb shot.
Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti introduced striker Didier Drogba, who had an overnight illness, after the break and it sparked an improvement by his side after a lifeless first half.
Home keeper Pepe Reina blocked a close range shot from Florent Malouda after a cross by Droga.
Cech prevented his team from going three down when he stretched out a leg to deny Dirk Kuyt before Chelsea nearly cut the deficit only for Nicolas Anelka's strike to hit the crossbar.
