The match was marked by a masterclass of football from the English team against the Spaniards. According to Diario AS, one of Spain’s most traditional newspapers, Liverpool “devoured” Real Madrid at Anfield. The harshest criticism was aimed at Mbappé, who had another very poor performance in the merengue shirt and even missed a penalty.
The team coached by Arne Slot took the lead early in the second half and doubled their advantage less than 25 minutes later, but what stood out was the control exerted by the home team. With the victory, the Reds remain 100% in the competition with five wins from five matches and are almost assured of qualification—five points ahead of Aston Villa, the first team outside the top 8. Additionally, they are at the top of the list of undefeated teams in the competition, alongside Inter Milan and Atalanta.
On the other hand, Real Madrid needs to hit the panic button. With two wins and three losses so far, Carlo Ancelotti’s team is in 24th place, the last spot that qualifies for the playoffs. The next round will not be easy either: the current champions will travel to Italy to face Atalanta, who are in 5th place with 11 points. Real will close their group stage participation by hosting RB Salzburg in the seventh round and visiting Stade Brestois in the final match. BBscore football, your go-to place for football results.
