LIVERPOOL V BENFICA - REDS GO THROUGH AFTER SIX-GOAL THRILLER

The Reds were never threatened really but kudos for Benfica for never giving up.

But this offside won't be overtuned as Nunez was clearly offside. Again a neat finish mind you.

This one won't be reversed. A fantastic run from Salah, who played a one-two with Firmino before shooting for the back post but with it heading wide Mane tapped home.

The ball comes to Nunez at the far post and he crashes a low bullet towards the near post which the Brazilian gets down to stop.

Again VAR reward Benfica.

Or is it? A fantastic finish from Nunez, who took advantage of Bernardo's poor touch. VAR will check.

But his ball is too weak and Junior comes across to intercept.

Joseph Gomez was playing Yaremchuk offside so the goal counts.

And another fine finish ruled out this time from Yaremchuk, who rounded Alisson before scoring....but hang on, VAR will check this.

But the midfielder can't angle his effort on target.

Firmino with a second, again from close range, this time catching a free kick into the box on the volley and giving the keeper no chance.

But Alisson just manages to claim the cross. Salah chased the striker all the way to the line and Nunez ended up crashing into the hoardings.

Jota, Milner and Henderson make way.

Firmino taps in from close range after being found from Jota's low cross from the left flank.

It looked like it would drop for both to shoot after Hendersn played the ball in but Benfica manage to defend.

This could change if Benfica score on the break again though - and they have shown the capability.

Jota's cross is behind his fellow strikers but Grimaldo's half-clearance falls to Keita 25 yards out and his low shot flies just a yard wide.
