KLOPP’S MARVELS IN SEVEN HEAVEN

- BY DAVID MADDOCK

LIVERPOOL rewrote the history books with an incredible recordbrea­king display.

Jurgen Klopp’s side recorded the club’s biggest away win in Europe with a devastatin­g destructio­n of Maribor. The Reds had given little warning of the havoc they

unleashed, but two goals each from Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino set them on course for a staggering victory.

Salah said: “It was a great game, we did good. It was an important result and we have to keep looking forward.

“Now we have to concentrat­e on improving the results in the Premier League and keep on moving. Everyone was confident a good result was coming.”

It was Liverpool’s second-biggest away win in any competitio­n in history, beaten only by an 8-0 swagger at Stoke in 2000 in the League Cup.

Klopp was beaming as Philippe Coutinho added another, sub Alex OxladeCham­berlain finally came to the party and youngster Trent Alexander-Arnold rounded off the scoreline in the final minute.
