Alexis Mac Allister scores for Liverpool in 1-0 win vs. Real Madrid

Liverpool defeated Real Madrid 1–0 at Anfield in the UEFA Champions League. The only goal of the match came from Argentine midfielder Alexis Mac Allister, who scored with a powerful header in the second half.

The deadlock was finally broken when a cross from the right found Mac Allister inside the box, and the midfielder rose to head the ball past Courtois to give Liverpool the lead.

With this result, Liverpool moved into the qualification zone for the round of 16, matching Real Madrid in points in Group C. The Spanish side played without Franco Mastantuono, who was unavailable due to a groin injury.
