Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah celebrate Liverpool’s first goal

Their front four of Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Philippe Coutinho were utterly rampant, leaving the La Liga side’s defenders in a spin.

Firmino scored twice, both tap ins, and Mane produced a clever headed finish to give the visitors a commanding lead before half time.

Firmino’s first and Mane’s strike were almost carbon copies of each other after Sevilla failed to deal with two Liverpool corners.

As it stands, Liverpool will not only go through to the knockout phase but get there as Group E winners.

All with a game to spare too.

Since the defeat to Tottenham at the end of October, Jurgen Klopp’s side have won four on the spin, scoring 13 and conceding just once.

You can add another three to that total already.

In this kind of form, aside from Manchester City, is there a better attacking team in England?
