Liverpool’s Champions League winner odds have drifted to 33/1 after they were swept aside by La Liga giants Real Madrid in tonight’s memorable encounter.
The home side started the match brilliantly and got their reward minutes into the match. Darwin Nunez showed his quality with a gorgeous flick that left Thibaut Courtois with no chance. Mohamed Salah then doubled the lead, after Courtois gifted the Egyptian with an open goal, which he took full advantage of.
The Spanish side got back into the game through a superb right-footed strike from Vinicius Jr, who smashed the ball into the bottom corner. Alisson then made a mistake of his own, as his pass deflected off the Real Madrid winger and into the back of the net.
A sublime header from Eder Militao and a second-half double for Karim Benzema was enough to get the victory for Los Blancos. The reverse fixture is set to take place on March 15th and Liverpool will be hoping to repeat the famous comebacks that they have managed in the past.
