Liverpool have taken the lead in their Europa League round of 16 tie with Sparta Praha courtesy of an Alexis Mac Allister goal.
The clash is the Czech Republic starts a run of important matches for Jurgen Klopp’s men and none more so than their game against Man City on Sunday.
The Reds have a job to do on Thursday night first and it has got off to the perfect start after Sparta Praha gave away a penalty trying to play out from the back.
Mac Allister slotted the spot-kick home as the goalkeeper essentially made the World Cup winner’s mind up by already moving to his left.
