Goals from Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah helped the Reds put behind their domestic troubles to earn consecutive UCL group match victories.
Alexander-Arnold set the tone for an easy evening with a well-struck free kick in seven minutes before Salah, who has been a shadow of his brilliant past, scored from the spot early in the second period following a penalty won by Luiz Diaz.
