Liverpool began their Champions League league-phase campaign with a second consecutive victory after beating LASK 6-3 in Austria.
Bradley Barcola was the standout performer, scoring three goals to complete a hat-trick in a high-scoring match. Liverpool’s six-goal haul secured another three points and maintained their perfect start to the competition.
The result means Liverpool have won both of their opening league-phase fixtures. LASK scored three times but could not match Liverpool’s attacking output as the English side claimed a 6-3 victory.
Liverpool’s next Champions League results will determine how strongly they position themselves in the league phase, while Barcola’s hat-trick marked the defining contribution of the win in Austria.
