Liverpool made it two wins out of two in the UEFA Champions League as the Reds demolished FC Porto.
It was a performance that the title-winning side would have been proud of as Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane all got on the scoresheet in a 5-1 win over the Portuguese giants.
With academy graduate Curtis Jones bagging two assists and James Milner once again flourishing at fullback, it was a perfect night for Liverpool despite a consolation goal from Porto 74 minutes in.
Liverpool now sit comfortably top of Group B with Atletico Madrid beating AC Milan. And the scoreline from the Reds meant that Jurgen Klopp’s side had equalled an impressive record.
