Liverpool’s attacking unit is better than Barcelona’s - Hamann

Liverpool possess a better attacking unit than Barcelona, according to former Reds midfielder Didi Hamann, ahead of their Champions League semi-final first leg on Wednesday.

La Liga winners Barca swept Liverpool’s arch-rivals Manchester United aside with ease in the quarter-finals, beating the Red Devils 4-0 over two legs.

The Premier League side progressed to the semi-finals with relative ease as well, beating Porto 6-1 over two legs to set up the last-four date with the Blaugrana.
