OUR TNT SPORTS EXPERTS REACT TO LIVERPOOL'S WIN
STEVE MCMANAMAN: "It was a good away performance. They rode their luck at times. They could have scored two to make it more comfortable and should have had the penalty....
"But three wins from three in the new format... It's an excellent night's work."
RIO FERDINAND: "I agree. They deserved the penalty ( in the first half that wasn't given) and could have seen the game out (more comfortably). They got a bit slack at the end. There were some bad run from Openda where he was offside where they breached the high line, but in the end Liverpool got the win.
"Arne Slot will be delighted. It's a win away in Europe and clean sheet that keeps the momentum going too."

NUNEZ FIRES LIVERPOOL TO DESERVED WIN IN LEIPZIG
Darwin Nunez struck the winner as Liverpool maintained their perfect start to the UEFA Champions League group stage with a 1-0 victory at RB Leipzig.
Arne Slot’s side weathered a bright opening from the home side to steal in front on 27 minutes when Nunez touched home Mo Salah’s header on the line to snare his second goal of the season.
Virgil van Dijk then saw a header from a right-wing corner tipped over the crossbar before Leipzig were fortunate to survive a penalty shout when Willi Orban tripped Nunez in the box.
Alexis Mac Allister clipped the crossbar with a superb effort as the visitors continued to dominate in the second period before Caoimhín Kelleher came to the rescue with a fine stop to deny Benjamin Sesko late on.
The result sees Liverpool join Aston Villa at the top of the UEFA Champions League standings with three wins from three outings.
Next up, Liverpool visit Arsenal in a key clash at the Premier League summit on Sunday afternoon. Leipzig host Freiburg in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
