Liverpool won 2-0 at home to Porto in the Champions League on Wednesday evening, with debutant Tyler Morton impressing and Thiago scoring a world-class goal.
Liverpool 2-0 Porto
Champions League (5), Anfield
November 24, 2021
Goals: Thiago 52, Salah 70′
The Reds had a relatively low-pressure game to look forward to at Anfield, having already finished top of their group to reach the knockout stages.
A much-changed team were still looking to impress, however, against a Porto side who also have aspirations of qualifying for the last 16.
The game sprang into life thanks to the excellent Thiago, who thundered an outrageous half-volley into the net to give Liverpool a second-half lead.
Mohamed Salah then scored his 10th Champions League goal in as many games, rounding off yet another win in Europe.
Here’s how supporters reacted to the win on Twitter, Facebook and This Is Anfield’s comments section.
A solid win was roundly applauded, as well as no injuries…
Undefeated in the Champions League ‘group of death’.
5 games. 5 wins.
Things you love to see…..

As for the match, the biggest win as far as I’m concerned is no injuries. Might be some fatigue, but we won’t know about that until further down the line. Southampton & Everton in quick succession now, so have to hope there’s no after effects.

“Job done, nothing more.”

Klopp more than justified his selection there. We all feared an injury but the outcome was the contrary.
Important minutes for youth, fringe and players recovering from injuries. A #UCL debut for Morton. Another goal for Mo, a win for Liverpool and the momentum remains. ??

Klopp will be overjoyed and rightly so. Made the right changes and got the win.

That is a sensational strike by an unbelievably gifted footballer.
Thiago staying fit is HUGE for Liverpool.

Morton shone on his Champions League debut…
Biggest compliment I can pay Tyler Morton is that he didn’t look out of place at all in our midfield. Reckon he’s got a bright future. #LFC

100% record maintained, clean sheet, Thiago MOTM after an outrageous goal, strong Morton debut, successful Salah stat-pad, returnees getting valuable mins off the bench. Couldn't have asked for much more than that. #LFC

Best ever performance for #lfc in a Champions League group stage with 15 points (previous best 14 in 2008-09). And there's still one game remaining.
