On this day, just two years ago, Liverpool welcomed Manchester City in the Champions League quarter-finals. With the first leg taking place under the lights, the game was to be one of the classic European nights at Anfield. Weeks after the sale of Philippe Coutinho to Barcelona, with Virgil van Dijk having arrived from Southampton in the same January transfer window, it was to be a breakout night for the Reds as they demonstrated the quality that's now become synonymous with the side. Join Guy Clarke, Paul Philbin and Matt Addison as they look back on the game, going back to when the draw was made, all the way through to the opening 31 minutes in which Mohamed Salah, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Sadio Mane's goals gave Liverpool a 3-0 lead, plus the context of the result with Klopp's side making their way to the 2018 Champions League final in Kiev.
