Many Liverpool fans expected we would have a second rate team out against Sparta Praha, instead Jurgen Klopp went full strength and Darwin Nunez rewarded him with a third goal in the first 45 minutes.
It was a thoroughly entertaining first period and despite the home team being a constant threat too, the Reds couldn’t stop finding the back of the net.

Scorer of the opener Alexis Mac Allister played a lovely ball over the top for our No.9, who was gifted too much time to ready his effort on goal.
