Liverpool beat Rangers, but Luis Diaz ended up heartbroken for this reason

In the duel between Liverpool and Rangers on the third day of the Champions League group stage, where the Reds won 2-0. Luis Díaz played all 90 minutes at Anfield, while Morelos (lowest match rating 6.2 out of 10) was replaced by Antonio Čolak in the 73rd minute. The first goal of the match was scored by Trent Alexander-Arnold from a right-footed free-kick that left Allan McGregor with no reaction.

Lucho Díaz, with a final rating of 7.2 out of 10 by statistics portal SofaScore, had his best chance in the 11th minute with one of his traditional dribbles outside the box and a right-footed shot with the inside edge of his shoe. In the 34th minute, the Guajiro again tested the Rangers goal with a run down the left flank and goalkeeper McGregor managed to keep out his low shot even though his vision was obstructed by the rest of the players on the pitch.
