Luckiest team of all to even be there are Liverpool. Liege were by far the better team not helped by an incredibly biased referee. Unusual for a Swiss to be so decidedly not neutral.

That's a stinker for Liverpool, they're gonna struggle to go through.
And I'm looking forward to the Man Utd-Celtic clashes.
