Tsimikas, 82’) A quiet cameo for the late sub. Reuters

Made his first save of the night in the 65th minute when he stepped off his line quickly to stop Mustapha from grabbing one back for the visitors. Did well to deny Usor in the 77th and made another tremendous save in the 83rd minute. EPA

Vital block to stop Usor from setting Zulj up early in the game. Played in a beautiful cross for Diaz to head home in the 12th minute. Got close to scoring his first goal for the Reds with a shot from the edge of the penalty area before the break. Getty

A quiet outing where he didn't have to do much. Stuck to the basics in defence, and provided leadership. Reuters

Looked every bit like a senior Liverpool defender and didn't look out of place. Came across to make a brilliant block and deny Mustapha the chance to test Kelleher in the 67th minute. Reuters

Played a lovely cross behind the LASK defence for Gakpo, but the Dutch forward failed to make the run. Hit a thunderous effort that came off the woodwork in the 32nd minute. EPA

On a night when he had a chance to really stand out, Endo had another average performance. Lost possession in dangerous areas on the pitch a number of times. PA

A joy to watch as he took full advantage of the space between the visitors’ midfield and defence in the first half. Forced Tobias Lawa into a strong save with his foot in the 56th minute. EPA

Had a quiet outing despite the home side's dominance. Kept things simple. AP

Showed great anticipation to sneak between the LASK fullback and cushion a low header into the net. Played a prominent role in the second goal as he played a beautiful pass behind the visitors’ defence for Salah to run onto. EPA

Set up the second goal with a lovely dinked pass that left the goalkeeper flat-footed. Had a chance to put his name on the scoresheet in the 43rd minute, but his effort was too close to Tobias Lawal. Made it 3-0 with a well-taken penalty into the bottom corner just after the restart. PA

A poor first touch forced him to blaze an effort high and wide when he was played through on goal by Elliott 10 minutes into the game. Grabbed the game's second goal with a simple tap-in off a Salah lay-off. Grabbed his second of the night late in the game with a thunderous effort that left the keeper with no chance. PA

SUBS: (Konate, 56’) Took on the captain's armband after coming on and showed leadership by making several clearances when the visitors upped the tempo in search of a consolation goal. Assisted Gapko’s second goal with a pass that sliced open the visitor's defence. EPA

(Salah, 56’) Looked lively after coming on with his intricate passing and movement. AFP

(Diaz, 56’) Forced Tobias Lawal into a brilliant save with his legs in the 59th minute. Guilty of hitting a number of unnecessary shots in a desperate search for a goal. AP

(Gravenberch, 82’) Didn’t make much of an impact after coming on. Getty
