UEFA Champions League: Liverpool to host RB Leipzig in Budapest

Liverpool stained history on Sunday when it lost 7-2 to Aston Villa.

Football historians recall that the last time they conceded seven goals was 1963.

The calamity came its way the same day Tottenham drowned Manchester United too, disgracing them 6-1.

As AFP reports, Ollie Watkins’s first-half hat-trick helped Aston Villa thrash the English champions.

While Mane’s absence appeared to have worsened Liverpool’s woes, Salah’s hitting at the goal did not make much difference,

Deflected efforts from John McGinn, Ross Barkley, and Jack Grealish compounded a night to forget for Jurgen Klopp’s men before Grealish completed the scoring.

Ollie Watkins nets a first-half hat-trick as champions Liverpool are torn apart.

Watkins is the first player to score a PL hat-trick against Liverpool since Dimitar Berbatov for Man Utd in September 2010.

He is also the first English-born player to do so since Kevin Lisbie for Charlton in September 2003.
