Liverpool lose first European home game for six years as 42-game Anfield unbeaten run is ended

Liverpool have lost a European game at home for the first time in six years after crashing out of the Champions League last-16 at the hands of Atletico Madrid.

The Reds lost 3-2 after extra-time at Anfield to see their 42-game unbeaten run in all competitions come to an end and is the first time Jurgen Klopp has lost two-legged tie as the club’s manager.

Last season's Champions League winners seized a 1-0 advantage in 90 minutes thanks to a Gini Wijnaldum goal, forcing extra time following a 1-0 loss in Madrid in the first leg.
