The media have gone a little overboard, agreed.
However lets break this down...
- Liverpool registered the biggest away Champions League knockout win ever, equalling Bayern Munich's 5-0 win at Sporting Lisbon in February 2009 and Real Madrid's at Schalke in February 2014.
- This is Porto's heaviest home European defeat and the first time they have conceded more than three goals in a home European match.
- Porto had only conceded 10 goals all season before last night.
- Liverpool are the first English side to score five goals in an away Champions League knockout match.
- Liverpool are also the Champions League’s top goalscorers ever at this stage with 28 goals, including 25 of those coming in their last five games.
Basically last night records were being smashed for fun.
If you were Barcelona or Real Madrid you'd be ****ting yourself at the prospect of facing Liverpool.
Fahckts.
