Liverpool responded by redoubling their efforts, which were rewarded when Mac Allister rose unmarked to head in Dominik Szoboszlai's free-kick.



Alexander-Arnold's name had been booed throughout but his arrival in the 81st minute produced a cacophy of jeers, which continued with every touch. For all Real's attacking resources it was familiar foe between the posts who played the key role in the first half.
