"It was another memorable European night at Anfield on Tuesday as Liverpool put on a vintage display in their 1-0 Champions League win over the visiting Real Madrid. This is the second consecutive season the Reds have beaten Madrid at Anfield in the UCL league phase following last season's 2-0 victory. It was a another step towards normalcy for Liverpool as this impressive showing came on the heels of finally securing a win in the Premier League at the weekend over Aston Villa."
"Ryan Gravenberch - 7.5/10 - The Dutch midfielder was all over the place tonight blocking shots, cutting out passes and generally being a nuisance to Real's forwards. He covered a lot of ground and every inch was important. Alexis Mac Allister - 9/10 - That was a vintage performance from Macca who looked the like the player who was a POTY contender last season. Took his goal well with a strong header, but he was popping up all over the pitch in this one. He's back."
