Sydney FC 0 Liverpool 3: Gerrard and Carragher return in Reds cruise

Daniel Strurridge, Alberto Moreno and Roberto Firmino struck as Liverpool comfortably defeated Sydney FC.

Liverpool cruised to a 3-0 victory over A-League winners Sydney FC at ANZ Stadium in a match that saw Jurgen Klopp hand appearances to four former stars, including Steven Gerrard.

Gerrard, Jamie Carragher, Steve McManaman and Daniel Agger all made 45-minute appearances as the Reds won the post-season friendly in emphatic fashion.

Daniel Sturridge put Liverpool in front early on and Alberto Moreno promptly added a second with the best goal of the game in front of a 72,892 crowd.

Roberto Firmino made it three prior to half-time, with the second half lacking the same intensity as substitutions disrupted the flow of the game.
