Liverpool played in European competition without English players for the first time

For the first time in its history, the Liverpool team took to the field in a European competition starting lineup without any English players. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to the BBC, this event was a significant historical moment for the team. In the match against Madrid's Atletico team, Liverpool appeared on the field for the 418th time in major European tournaments.

In this match, only one English player took the field from the first minutes, and he was Conor Gallagher, who represents the Spanish club. The final result of the game ended with Liverpool's 3-2 victory.

Spanish head coach Diego Simeone is at risk of disqualification due to an altercation with a fan. Additionally, in this match, Liverpool fielded four Dutch players, setting a unique record.

This further enhances the team's competitiveness in European competitions.
