Liverpool ended their 8-game winless streak against Real Madrid on Wednesday, beating the reigning Champions League winners 2-0 at Anfield to maintain their perfect record.
Alexis Mac Allister scored to break the deadlock in the second half before goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher saved Kylian Mbappe’s penalty in the 61st minute to sustain Liverpool’s lead.
Mohamed Salah missed a penalty as well nine minutes later, but Cody Gakpo scored to seal the win and send Liverpool back to the top of the Champions League table with 15 points after five games.
