Wednesday night's Champions League clash at Anfield may have been crucial for Liverpool's quadruple quest but a lot also hinged on the quarter final tie for Benfica forward Darwin Nunez.
In front of the anxious eyes of the Kop, the Uruguayan faced an audition judged by seemingly the entirety of the Premier League - and he did not disappoint.
The 22-year-old passed his audition with flying colours as Benfica attempted to derail the Reds' Champions League charge.
The Portuguese team threatened Jurgen Klopp's side on Wednesday and, though ultimately they did not succeed, they certainly did not make it a comfortable ride for Liverpool, largely thanks to Nunez.
