Liverpool have had an easy night at Anfield and currently lead their Europa League round of 16 tie with Sparta Praha 11-2 after Cody Gakpo made it 6-1 on the night.
The Reds blitzed the Czech team in the first half scoring four goals in the space of seven minutes. The away side would pull one back before halftime before Dominik Szoboszlai’s deflected effort brought the gap back to four.
A sixth goal has now been added through Cody Gakpo as the Dutch star stole what seemed like a great goal from Harvey Elliott, however, on closer inspection, the forward produced a cheeky flick from the shot to score his second of the match.
