Vinícius Júnior is the first player to score against Liverpool in the five games Ozan Kabak and Nat Phillips have started together.
And what a pass from Toni Kroos.
Marco Asensio’s last 4 matches for Real Madrid:

vs Celta Vigo
vs Eibar
vs Liverpool
This is the first time ever he’s scored in 4 consecutive appearances for Los Blancos!
2 - Liverpool have conceded twice in the first half of a Champions League knockout game for the first time since the 2005 final against AC Milan (3). Swarmed.
0 - Liverpool have failed to attempt a shot in the first half of a Champions League game for the first time since November 2014, which was also against Real Madrid. Blanketed.
