Harvey Elliot and Darwin Nunez struck twice in quick succession to extend Liverpool’s lead.
After a horrendous miss in the first-half, somehow hitting the post with the goal at his mercy, Nunez will have been desperate to redeem himself.
The Liverpool striker did just that, powering in a header to extend Liverpool’s lead. Shortly after, youngster Elliot somehow squeezed a strike in at the near post to make it 3-0 to Liverpool.

A draw would have seen Liverpool into the next round of the Champions League, as Napoli look set to join them in qualification.
