Liverpool continues quadruple charge with emphatic Champions League win over Benfica
CNN
Liverpool's charge towards a historic quadruple continued Tuesday as Jurgen Klopp's side ran out a comfortable 3-1 winner away to Benfica in its Champions League quarterfinal first leg.
Ibrahima Konaté and Sadio Mané gave Liverpool a 2-0 halftime lead, before Darwin Núñez pulled one back for Benfica within five minutes of the restart to give the home side some hope.
However, Luis Díaz put the game -- and likely the tie -- to bed with just three minutes remaining with his first Champions League goal for his new club.
