Match report: Reds put five past Porto in Champions League victory

Liverpool maintained first place in their Champions League group on Tuesday evening with a convincing 5-1 victory away at FC Porto.

The Reds have a two-point lead at the top of Group B thanks to braces from Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino, along with a Sadio Mane goal, at the Estadio do Dragao.

Salah opened the scoring in Porto after 18 minutes before Mane doubled the visitors' lead at the end of the first half.

The Egyptian made it 3-0 following a sweeping move after half-time, though Porto then grabbed one back with Mehdi Taremi's header.
