Liverpool extended their perfect start to the Champions League with an impressive 4-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen at Anfield, with Luis Díaz scoring a second-half hat-trick.
The win propelled the Reds to the top of their group, maintaining their flawless record in the competition.
The first half was a tight affair, as Xabi Alonso’s Leverkusen side proved to be tricky opponents, but Liverpool’s breakthrough came after the hour mark.
Díaz opened the scoring with a composed dinked finish after Curtis Jones exploited the offside trap to release him behind Leverkusen’s defense.
Moments later, Liverpool doubled their lead when Cody Gakpo latched onto a cross from Mohamed Salah. Initially flagged offside, a VAR check confirmed Gakpo was onside, and the goal stood.
Díaz completed his hat-trick with two more goals, capping off a clinical performance that inflicted only the third defeat in two years for Leverkusen under Xabi Alonso.
For Leverkusen, it was a tough return to Anfield for Alonso, who was playing his first competitive match there since leaving Liverpool in 2009.
