After 26 minutes, van dijk set up Sadio Mane to put Liverpool ahead but Joel Matip scored an own goal to make it 1-1 at half-time.

Then in the 69th minute, Van Dijk rose to head in a corner to restore Liverpool’s lead before Mane sealed a 3-1 victory.

Liverpool take their place in the final eight of the competition along with Barcelona who beat Memphis Depay’s Lyon 5-1 in the Nou Camp to seal their progression.

It was a frustrating night for Memphis, who was substituted with the score at 2-1.
