Salah the star as Liverpool stun Man City on memorable Anfield night
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Jordan Henderson praised Liverpool's fans after a raucous crowd at Anfield inspired their 3-0 victory over Manchester City.
Jurgen Klopp's side are favourites to reach the last four of the Champions League after seeing off their domestic rivals in the first leg of their quarter-final tie.
Liverpool scored three goals in the opening half before defending resolutely after the break, giving them a sizeable cushion to take into next Tuesday's second leg in Manchester.
Oxlade-Chamberlain, who made it 2-0 with a long-range strike beyond City goalkeeper Ederson, admitted the home support was "unbelievable" - and not just during the game.
"It was a great start for us – going 3-0 up before half-time set us up brilliantly," the England international told WhoWearWhatng.blogspot.com
The Reds recorded a rousing 3-0 win over Manchester City on another epic European night on Merseyside, the visitors swept away by a tide of emotion
Ok, so now do you understand? Now do you understand why Jurgen Klopp said that while Lionel Messi's Barcelona were in action against Roma at the same time, Liverpool against Manchester City was the Champions League tie to watch on Wednesday night.
Now do you understand what this Liverpool team is becoming? Now do you understand what Anfield is all about, what it does to red shirts, red minds and red hearts?
Pep Guardiola does. Manchester City do. Better than anyone else. They lost their unbeaten Premier League record on Merseyside in January; now their hopes of conquering Europe have been left hanging by a thread after a stunning 3-0 loss.
