Liverpool 4 Red Star Belgrade 0 LIVE: Champions League 2018-19 as it happened - Salah scores twice at Anfield

Liverpool 4-0 Red Star Belgrade
Uefa Champions League 2018/19
Venue: Anfield

Mohamed Salah reached 50 goals for Liverpool as Jurgen Klopp's side got their Champions League campaign back on track with a comfortable victory over Red Star Belgrade at Anfield.

Defeat by Napoli last time out made this a must-win game in the battle with the Italians and Paris St Germain for the qualifying spots, and Liverpool's class told as they ran out 4-0 winners.

Roberto Firmino continued his fine scoring record in the competition with the opener in the 20th minute before Salah took over, netting his first just before half-time and then scoring a penalty shortly after the break to make it 50 goals in just 65 Reds appearances.

A second penalty was missed by Sadio Mane but the forward made amends moments later to net Liverpool's fourth.
