PLAYER RATINGS - RB Leipzig 0-2 Liverpool: Mohamed Salah stalked the defence like a big cat hunting prey, and was yet again the star of the show... but Bayern-bound Dayot Upamecano had a night to forget

Liverpool have one foot in the Champions League quarter-finals after overcoming RB Leipzig 2-0 in the 'away' leg of their last-16 tie in Budapest.

Liverpool produced a brilliant all-round performance against the Bundesliga outfit - who ended Manchester United's hopes in the group stage - as they got back to winning ways following a dismal run of form.

Quickfire goals from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane, in the space of five minutes, put the Reds into a hugely commanding position heading into the second leg on March 10.

Here, Sportsmail's Dominic King has run the rule over both sets of players during the Champions League clash.
