It takes a lot to end a game with Lionel Messi looking like a lost puppy.
Liverpool did just that while ensuring Suarez made good on his promise not to celebrate at Anfield last night.
The Reds’ 4-0 victory over the Spanish Champions left Barcelona’s 3-0 victory last week meaning little.
No Salah? No Firmino? No problem.
The win sent twitter into a meltdown and here’s the best of it.
- Ian Rush gets involved in the celebrations!

3. Brazilian journalist Mauro Cezar had these touching words to describe the night, translating to: “The shirt weighs. The club has a lot of history. The crowd doesn’t sing, now. The stadium is a cathedral. And there are people who are surprised. They had no idea how big Liverpool is.” #YNWA
A camisa pesa.
O clube tem muita história.
A torcida não canta, ora.
O estádio é uma catedral.
E tem gente surpresa. Não tinham noção do quão gigante é o Liverpool.#YNWA
