James Milner sets new Champions League assist record

The 32-year-old's corner delivery for Roberto Firmino's headed second represented the ninth occasion this term that he has laid on a goal for a colleague in Europe.

That saw him surpass the tournament's previous best assists total of eight, achieved by both Neymar (2016-17) and Wayne Rooney (2013-14) in recent seasons.
