Here’s how they did it.
The Reds began this year’s Champions League campaign with a 3-1 win against AC Milan at the San Siro.
Goals from Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk and Dominik Szoboszlai got them off to the perfect start.
Liverpool then hosted Bologna and won 2-0 thanks to goals from Alexis Mac Allister and Mohamed Salah.
This victory meant Arne Slot became the first Liverpool boss to win eight of their first nine games in charge of the club.
Liverpool clinched a 1-0 win away at Leipzig, before hosting Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen.
Despite drawing 0-0 at half time, Liverpool won 4-0 with goals from Cody Gakpo and a Luis Diaz hat-trick, to ruin Alonso’s return to Anfield.
After not beating Real Madrid in their previous eight Champions League encounters, Liverpool got the better of them at Anfield to make it five wins from five in the group stage.
Both Mohamed Salah and Kylian Mbappe (who Conor Bradley bossed to great delight) missed penalties, but Alexis Mac Allister and Cody Gakpo fired the Reds to a 2-0 victory.
A Mohamed Salah penalty helped Liverpool to a 1-0 win over Girona, before they secured their place in the last 16 with a 2-1 home win over Ligue 1 side Lille.
Salah’s 50th European goal for the club and a deflected Harvey Elliott strike were enough to beat the French side, who were reduced to 10 men just before the hour mark.
