Benfica Stops Sadio Mané And Mohamed Salah But Suffers Painful Death By Luis Díaz
Despite quiet performances from Sadio Mané and Mohamed Salah that resulted in both getting hooked on the hour, Liverpool relied on the pass mastery of fullbacks Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson to defeat Benfica 3-1 in Lisbon on Tuesday while former Porto winger Luis Díaz returned to haunt his old rival with a goal and an assist.
The moment of the match was Liverpool's second in the 34th minute, which provided the Reds a deserved 2-0 halftime advantage.
