It's as close to a perfect first leg in a European competition as you'll see. It was the sort of performance many Liverpool fans came to expect when Liverpool were dominating Europe; the home clean sheet and a few goals to take into the second leg. It was almost perfection with only David De...
As dominating a performance as one could hope for as Liverpool scored two goals without a response in what could be termed as a one-sided first leg.
