Champions League live: Benfica v Liverpool updates

Diaz drifts in from the left and rakes a right-foot shot a yard wide of the near post.

That was Mane's 15th goal of the season.

Mane taps home Diaz's superb headed assist following a sublime diagonal cross from Alexander Arnold.

Otamendi gets ahead of Mane to attack a delivery from the left but completely misses his header. He was only seven yards out and looked certain to score.

If the match continues like this then Klopp's men could pretty much sew up the tie in this first leg. Benfica need to change something if they have any designs on making this a contest.

Konate's goal was Liverpool's 50th in Europe against teams from Portugal.

It was also their 350th as the away team under Jurgen Klopp.

The visitors cut through with rapid ease once more. This time Diaz is set free but his attempted dink is well smothered by Vlachodimos.

The Benfica winger surges into the side of the area but slides a low shot into the side netting. How the blue half of Merseyside would have loved to see that one go in!

Konate's first gal for the club is one he will savour.

Liverpool are given too much freedom once again down the left. It's crossed towards an unmarked Keita who gets his free header horribly wrong. That's a real let off for the Eagles.

Konate is given too much space to rise at the far post and power a header home from a left-wing corner.

Some nice, patient work on the right sees Keita burst into the box but he takes too long to size up the shot and Benfica are able to block. Thiago tries a first-time effort on the follow-up but drills it over the bar.

Benfica have lost just two of their last 18 home games in Europe – both to German clubs – Bayern Munich this season and RB Leipzig two seasons ago.

Vlachodimos parries Keita's firm strike from just inside the area and is back up on his line within a blink of an eye to stop Alexander-Arnold's follow-up from a tough angle.

Salah can't quite poke a shot beyond the keeper after a wonderful one-two from the right involving a Mane back heel carved the hosts wide open.

Diaz with a turn of pace that leaves Benfica scrambling. He flicks a ball in from the left that evades Mane and almost falls for Salah but the Egyptian's first touch lets him down.
