Liverpool booked their place in the Europa League quarter-finals after thrashing Czech side Sparta Prague 6-1 at Anfield on Thursday evening.
2023/2024 UEFA Europa League
6-1
Jurgen Klopp's side were ruthless despite leading 5-1 after the first leg, scoring four goals in seven first-half minutes to put the last-16 tie to bed, before Sparta Prague pulled one back through Velko Birmancevic.
Bobby Clark, 19, netted his first senior goal for Liverpool right after Darwin Nunez's seventh-minute opener. Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo then added two more in quick succession to make it 4-0 inside 15 minutes.
Dominik Szoboszlai's deflected effort, three minutes into the second half, was quickly followed by Gakpo's second as Liverpool punished a woeful Sparta Prague performance to claim their biggest aggregate win in Europe.
Liverpool will learn their next opponents in Friday's draw before heading to Old Trafford on Sunday to face Man Utd in the FA Cup quarter-finals, hoping to keep their quadruple dream alive.
