Liverpool made it two successive wins in all competitions as they beat Atletico Madrid 2-1 in a UEFA Champions League group stage clash.
The Reds came from behind to secure a fantastic win courtesy of goals from Dom Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister after Marcos Llorente broke the deadlock for the away side.
Liverpool got better as the game went on and produced a really assured performance in the second half, in particular.
And speaking after the game, Szoboszlai has heaped praise on Mac Allister as both of them got their names on the scoresheet.

“I’ve said it many times, I love to play with Macca,” said Szoboszlai via Liverpool Echo.
“We know each other, without actually talking when you look at someone and he knows what you want to do and I know exactly what he wants to do – I think that helps the team as well.

“It’s the manager’s decision who will play the next games and I think everyone is ready to compete with each other but we have to become a family.
“Can we be a successful pairing long-term? We can, we can.”
Both players are expected to retain their spots for the Premier League clash against Fulham on Saturday.
