Mohamed Salah came off the bench and scored the fastest hat trick in Champions League as he helped Liverpool to a dominant 7-1 victory at Rangers on Wednesday and eliminate the Scottish side from the competition.

The Reds responded to going behind to Scott Arfield’s early opener in emphatic style, with Roberto Firmino (two), Darwin Nunez, Mohamed Salah (three) and Harvey Elliott getting the goals to reinforce their bid for a place in the last 16.

Klopp’s team now need one point from their last two Group A games to be certain of qualifying for the first knockout round after Napoli sealed their progress by beating Ajax 4-2 earlier on Wednesday.
