Liverpool welcomed Sparta Prague at home in the second leg of the 1/8 round of the Europa League with perfect spirit and psychology. Previously, Jurgen Klopp and his team had a 5-1 lead after the first leg. However, the German teacher still brought a very strong attack with Salah – Nunez on the field from the beginning. They rushed to attack right after the opening whistle and the results soon came.

In the 7th minute, Szoboszlai crossed well for Nunez to score the match to open the score. A minute later, the Sparta Prague defender lost the ball in front of the penalty area and Clark punished his opponent with a very quick kick. Losing early and continuously, Sparta’s defense was confused and made mistakes again. In the 10th minute, the away team made the same mistake and Salah easily defeated the Sparta Prague goalkeeper.

Losing a 3-goal lead right after the ball had only been rolling for 10 minutes, goalkeeper Vindahl’s “nightmare” still hasn’t stopped. In the 14th minute, Gakpo caught Salah’s perfect pass to increase the score to 4-0. The more Liverpool plays, the more opportunities they have. Unfortunately, Nunez missed the perfect opportunity when he put the ball in the air at a distance of 2 meters. The away team suddenly scored in the 42nd minute after Birmancevic’s effort. The score was 4-1 in favor of Liverpool after the first 45 minutes.

Right at the beginning of the second half, Liverpool scored their 5th goal. In the 48th minute, Szoboszlai scored in the penalty area. The ball hit the defender’s foot and changed direction, leaving Sparta Prague’s goalkeeper unable to react and scoring Liverpool’s 5th goal. In the 55th minute, Elliott curled a shot from outside the penalty area and Gakpo accidentally hit the back heel to score the 6th goal for the home team.

In the end, Liverpool won 6-1 in the second leg and won with a total score of 11-2 after 2 matches, thereby successfully winning a ticket to the quarter-finals.
