Liverpool swept aside Olympique de Marseille with a 3-0 away victory to extend their unbeaten run to 13 matches in all competitions and move a step closer to direct qualification for the Champions League last 16. Goals on Wednesday from Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo, either side of a Geronimo Rulli own goal, lifted Arne Slot's team to 15 points, leaving them well placed in the top eight ahead of the final round of matches.

I wasn't in the dressing room but the staff told me it was incredible, violent, aggressive and went beyond any limits.
