#UCL: Liverpool Qualifies For Quarter-Finals Of UEFA Champions League With Win Over Atletico Madrid

Liverpool has qualified for the round of 16 of the Champions League with a 2- 0 win Atletico Madrid.

Infoexpert24 reports that this win means that Liverpool will finish top of Group B.

Early goals by Diogo Jota and Sadio Mane, both created by Trent Alexander-Arnold, put the Reds in full command and there was no way back for the Spanish side once Felipe was sent off before half-time.

Jurgen Klopp’s side should have dished out more punishment after the break but missed a flurry of chances and Jota had another strike ruled out for offside by the video assistant referee.

Atletico thought they had pulled a goal back from a deflected shot by former Reds striker Luis Suarez, but that too was chalked off for offside by VAR and they never seriously threatened a comeback.

The win extends Liverpool’s unbeaten start to the season to 16 games and, in total, they have not tasted defeat for 25 matches, dating back to 6 April when they lost to Real Madrid in the quarter-finals of last season’s Champions League.
