"The Reds came out on top Wednesday, three goals to nil, with the prospect of a tricky night dealt with easily by Arne Slot's men. Marseille's supposed, free flowing style and attacking prowess was massively underwhelming and meant the Reds dominated the night leaving the south of France with all three points, moving up to 4th in the Champions League table."
"Alisson Becker - 7 The Brazilian showed once again why he is, and has been the best goalkeeper in the world for the past 5/6 years, big saves at crucial moments kept the few Marseille chances that were made, out of his net. His save from Amine Gouiri in the first half, was the highlight of his performance. A strong effort from the right side of his box was fantastically palmed away by LFC's shot stopper."
"The Dutch full-back used his blistering pace to get to the byline, embarrass Marseille winger, Igor Paixao, and then played a dangerous pass that deflected of the goalkeeper and ricocheted into the empty net. Away from his attacking play, Frimpong was rarely tested in his own half and was often the outlet ball when LFC were attacking. An assist, a consistent threat in attack and a clean sheet means that Jeremie Frimpong was my Man of the Match."
Liverpool defeated Marseille 3-0 in the Champions League, moving up to fourth in the group. Marseille's supposed free-flowing style and attacking threat was massively underwhelming, allowing Liverpool to dominate the night. The win featured two open-play goals built through positive possession and a clever, well-rehearsed free-kick. Alisson Becker produced multiple crucial saves, including a standout palm from an Amine Gouiri effort, and finished with a solid rating. Jeremie Frimpong was Man of the Match, using blistering pace to create chances, assist the deflected goal and remain a consistent attacking outlet. Joe Gomez continued his reliable defensive form.
