"Having trailed by one goal from the first leg, Liverpool turned on the style at Anfield as Hugo Ekitike, Ryan Gravenberch and Mohamed Salah all scored in the space of 11 minutes after the interval."
"Dominik Szoboszlai's brilliant first-time finish from Alexis Mac Allister's well-worked corner sent Liverpool ahead 25 minutes in, but Arne Slot's side were then frustrated by an inspired showing from Ugurcan Cakir."
"But the visiting goalkeeper could do nothing to stop Liverpool from doubling their lead in the 51st minute, with Salah's pinpoint cross tucked home by Ekitike at the back post."
"Liverpool pushed for a fifth, with Salah rattling the crossbar before Mac Allister had a goal ruled out late on for a foul on Cakir by Virgil van Dijk, but it mattered little to the Reds, who will reunite with Paris Saint-Germain in the last eight."
