WATCH: Roberto Firmino scores ‘no-look’ third for Liverpool in Seville

Showboating...

Liverpool would’ve expected a tougher first 45 minutes against Sevilla on Tuesday night.

Despite appearing to be Jürgen Klopp’s side’s toughest match in Champions League Group E, Liverpool were coasting at half-time – leading by three goals.

The first came after just 88 seconds, Roberto Firmino in the right place to fire home after the La Liga side failed to defend a corner properly. Shortly after the 20 minute mark, Liverpool scored a second from almost identical circumstances. Again a corner was not dealt with by Sevilla, with Sadio Mane this time in position to add their second.

Their third again came from Roberto Firmino, and in truth, he’d have struggled to miss. Probably because of this, the Brazilian decided to add an element of showboating to the finish, looking away as he slammed the ball into the empty Sevilla net.
