PLAYER RATINGS: Scores revealed for DIRE Liverpool stars who flopped in first leg against Atalanta - with three sharing the worst mark - as Jurgen Klopp's farewell risks a poor finish

Liverpool were left stunned at Anfield after suffering a shock 3-0 defeat by Atalanta in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final tie.

Jurgen Klopp rang the changes ahead of kick off, but they almost backfired straightaway with his side having Caoimhin Kelleher to thank for a stunning save at point-blank range from Mario Pasalic.

The Reds were at far from their best and Gianluca Scamacca gave his side a deserved opener, although his effort did squirm through Kelleher's hands.

Despite a triple substitution at half-time, Liverpool failed to recover and Scamacca doubled Atalanta's lead after more poor defending, before Mario Pasalic added a third to send the Italian side into dreamland ahead of next week's second leg in Bergamo.
