Díaz Leads Dominant Liverpool Display with Hat-Trick Against Leverkusen
Liverpool’s relentless form under Arne Slot continued as they overwhelmed Bayer Leverkusen 4-0 at Anfield in the UEFA Champions League. This victory, spearheaded by Luis Díaz’s hat-trick, extends Liverpool’s unbeaten streak against German opposition to 14 games, while keeping them top of their group.
Quiet First Half Before Liverpool’s Late Surge
Xabi Alonso’s return to Anfield as Leverkusen’s manager brought a warm welcome but no mercy, as Liverpool controlled possession early on. Victor Boniface and Cody Gakpo traded early attempts, but neither side could convert. Granit Xhaka and Trent Alexander-Arnold came close, yet their shots were met by solid defending. Liverpool grew into the game as the half closed, and Mohamed Salah and Gakpo carved out chances, with Salah denied by Lukas Hradecky’s sharp save.
Despite a valiant defensive effort from Leverkusen, Díaz eventually broke the deadlock after the break, latching onto Curtis Jones’ well-timed pass and chipping deftly over Hradecky. Barely two minutes later, Cody Gakpo doubled the lead with a well-placed header from Salah’s cross. This quickfire double deflated the visitors, and Liverpool took full advantage.
Díaz Completes Hat-Trick as Liverpool Cruise
With the game firmly in hand, Díaz continued to torment the Leverkusen defense. He calmly controlled Salah’s cross to net Liverpool’s third, then capitalized on a rebound to complete his hat-trick, sealing Liverpool’s resounding 4-0 win.
This result extends Liverpool’s unbeaten run to 16 games under Arne Slot, who has delivered a perfect Champions League campaign thus far. The Reds continue to sit atop the group, while Leverkusen, winless in their last two European fixtures, struggle to keep pace.
