Goals from Mohamed Salah and Harvey Elliott gave Liverpool a 2-1 win over Lille and secured progress to the UEFA Champions League Round of 16.

Liverpool secured victory over Lille at Anfield as Arne Slot's men guarantee a top-eight finish in the Champions League group stage

Liverpool have won 2-1 against Lille in their Champions League match at Anfield. Mohamed Salah scored on the counter-attack in the first half and the hosts were cruising when Lille’s Aissa Mandi was sent off for a second bookable offence.

Mohamed Salah scored early and Harvey Elliott scored late, and that was all Liverpool needed to beat Lille at Anfield on Tuesday and move to 7-for-7 perfect in the newly formatted UEFA Champions League group stage.

HARVEY ELLIOTT’S FIRST Champions League goal in over two years secured a seventh successive Champions League victory but the guarantee of top spot was frustratingly denied them by a late Barcelona goal in Lisbon.
