Two minutes later, he made another run into the area and met a cross from Xherdan Shaqiri with a firm header into the corner past a flat-footed Ter Stegen.

Liverpool's players might also have wondered how to approach the game with the score tied on aggregate.

Then came the coup de grace after cheeky play by Alexander-Arnold. Origi scored and Barcelona had no answer.
