In the Champions League match, Liverpool secured a 1:0 victory over RB Leipzig. Darwin Núñez took advantage of the opportunity in the starting lineup, scoring the only goal of the meeting. Head coach Jürgen Klopp is pleased with the continuation of the winning streak this season.

"Given the absence of Diego Jota due to injury, Núñez was able to seize the opportunity and capitalized on it, scoring the ball in the 27th minute of the match, redirecting Mohamed Salah's shot. This goal turned out to be decisive," reported the club representative.

"We are happy with our performance, although we had moments of unnecessary tension in our defense," Núñez commented on his game.

Liverpool has six wins out of six away matches this season, which is an excellent indicator for the team. Currently, Klopp's squad occupies second place in the group with nine points, only falling behind 'Aston Villa' in terms of goal difference.

At the same time, RB Leipzig remains with zero points collected. The players could not convert several promising moments, also having two goals disallowed.
