Liverpool Defeats Toulouse 5-1, Maintains Perfect Record in Europa League
Wataru Endo scores first goal for Liverpool, young players shine in decisive Europa League victory.
- Liverpool maintains a perfect record in the Europa League with a convincing 5-1 win over Toulouse, keeping five different goal scorers on their match sheet.
- Midfielder Wataru Endo scored the first headed goal of the season for Liverpool, and his first for the club, putting Liverpool back in control after Toulouse's brief equaliser.
- Despite missing what should have been an easy goal, Darwin Nunez’s efforts were appreciated with the Liverpool crowd cheering his hard running and hold-up play throughout the match.
- Liverpool's academy players had a stand-out performance with 19-year-old left-back Luke Chambers marking his full debut and teenagers Calum Scanlon and James McConnell making their senior debuts.
- The win at Anfield puts Liverpool five points clear of Toulouse and Union Saint-Gilloise in Group E of the Europa League, setting them up for potentially winning the group with matches to spare if they defeat Toulouse away in a fortnight.
