Liverpool have not beaten Madrid in their last eight meetings, and they lost against them in two Champions League finals under Jurgen Klopp.

The atmosphere at Anfield was electrifying on Wednesday night. Throughout the ages, this iconic stadium has created magical atmospheres under the light, and the fans were jubilant last night.

Liverpool fans constantly sang about Arne Slot and other players, but once they took a comfortable 2-0 lead, they started chanting something else.

Journalist David Lynch shared that the Reds fans sang – “Liverpool, Liverpool top of the league” – which we usually do not hear on European nights.

Liverpool were dominant against Madrid who have now suffered their third defeat in this competition and are under pressure to reach the knockout stages.

James Pearce of The Athletic shared the Kop end chanted – “Liverpool, Liverpool taking the p***” – in the second half.

The focus shifts back to the massive game on Sunday

The focus now shifts back to the massive game on Sunday at Anfield. Liverpool can go 11 points clear at the top of the table with a win over Manchester City this weekend.

City are struggling badly but Liverpool must be fully prepared for this game. This is a brilliant opportunity for them to take control of the title race.

Bradley was superb against Madrid but Liverpool could miss him against City after he appeared to have picked up a hamstring injury.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is likely to be back for City, while Joe Gomez remains another major option.

Ibrahima Konate limped off after the match, and it will be a massive blow for the Reds if he is ruled out. Gomez or Jarrell Quansah could replace him.
