Liverpool’s Crushing Victory Over Qarabag: What This Dominant Display Means for Their Champions League Hopes
Liverpool breezed into the Champions League last-16 stage after hammering Qarabag 6-0 at Anfield.
Arne Slot’s side secured automatic qualification with ease by finishing third in the league phase, while Qarabag’s thrashing still saw them into the knockout-stage play-offs, where they will face either Paris Saint-Germain or Newcastle United.
Hugo Ekitike fired an early warning shot just wide of the bottom-left corner 12 minutes in, and Liverpool surged into control soon after.
Alexis Mac Allister was on hand to bundle home Virgil van Dijk’s flick-on from Dominik Szoboszlai’s deflected corner for the 15th-minute opener, before Ekitike slotted through for Florian Wirtz to find the bottom-left corner six minutes later.
