Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp said it was \u201cnice to write a piece of history\u201d as the Reds thrashed Slovenian side Maribor to record the biggest away win by an English team in the history of the European Cup.<\/p>\n

The Reds dominated throughout to go top of Champions League Group E with a scintillating performance.<\/p>\n

Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah both scored twice, with Philippe Coutinho, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Trent Alexander-Arnold also on target.<\/p>\n

The win eclipses 6-0 away victories by Leeds United over Norwegians Lyn in October 1969, and Manchester United against Irish outfit Shamrock Rovers in September 1957.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was told about the record after the game and I didn\u2019t know,\u201d said Klopp.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe wonderful history of this club can feel like a backpack at times so it is nice to write our own good piece of the history.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt will be difficult to beat that record. It is quite rare to win 7-0 but it showed we did unbelievably well.\u201d<\/p>\n

How the goals went in<\/strong><\/p>\n

Liverpool opened the scoring on four minutes when Firmino finished from close range after Salah broke free down the right.<\/p>\n

Coutinho made it 2-0 with a half-volley from James Milner\u2019s pull-back before Salah scored twice, finishing off passes from Firmino then Alberto Moreno as the Reds led 4-0 at half-time.<\/p>\n

Firmino added a fifth with a flicked header from Coutinho\u2019s free-kick as the Reds claimed their biggest Champions League victory since an 8-0 home victory over Turkish side Besiktas on\u00a06 November 2007.<\/p>\n

Daniel Sturridge linked up with fellow substitute Oxlade-Chamberlain for the latter to score his first goal for the club to make it 6-0, and Alexander-Arnold sealed the rout with a deflected 30-yard strike.<\/p>\n
