Jurrien Timber's bold remarks regarding Darwin Nunez have come back to haunt him as Liverpool booked their place in the Champions League Round of 16.
Prior to the clash in Amsterdam this evening, the 21-year-old insisted he planned to 'boss' Nunez whilst going toe-to-toe with him, only for Nunez to find the net superbly during the second half. Finding time and space inside the penalty area, the Reds' forward wonderfully met Andy Robertson's corner to double the side's lead.
Harvey Elliott was to complete the scoring soon after, with Jurgen Klopp's men dealt an initial scare early on in the contest. Mohamed Salah soon settled the nerves, latching onto a clever pass from Jordan Henderson in the opening 45 minutes.
