Rangers took the lead through Scott Arfield, but Roberto Firmino equalized and Liverpool took over after halftime, scoring six unanswered goals – including three in six minutes from substitute Mo Salah – to leave the hosts out of the last 16.

 

At 55 minutes, Firmino’s second goal gave Liverpool the lead, before the Brazilian’s flick set up Darwin Nunez for his second goal in as many games. Salah then took control, scoring the first of his three goals in 75 minutes and clinching the match with two more ruthless finishes against the hapless Rangers defence.

Liverpool now only needs one point from their final two games, away to Ajax and at home to Napoli, after Napoli defeated Ajax 4-2 earlier in the night. Rangers are in last place after four straight losses.

 

This victory came at a good time for Jurgen Klopp’s team who lost 3-2 to Arsenal at the Emirates stadium before facing Manchester City on Sunday.
