Travel sick Liverpool set unwelcome club record with latest Champions League loss

Liverpool have set an unwanted club record in Champions League competition with a 2-0 defeat away at Red Star Belgrade.

The Reds have continued to enjoy success in Europe, with Jurgen Klopp guiding them to another major final last season.

Real Madrid were, however, to prove too strong in Kiev as the long wait for major silverware on Merseyside was stretched to six years.

That outing does not go down as an away game for Liverpool, but it did offer another indication of their recent continental struggles outside of Anfield.

Home soil remains a fortress for the Reds, but they have picked up an unfortunate bout of travel sickness.
