Mohamed Salah reached a personal landmark with his 50th European goal for Liverpool as the Reds secured a spot in the Champions League last 16 by defeating 10-man Lille at Anfield.

Salah opened the scoring in the 34th minute, expertly chipping over Lucas Chevalier after connecting with Curtis Jones' incisive through ball.

Despite Lille's impressive 21-match unbeaten streak, they struggled to contain Liverpool after the opener.

Salah came close to extending the lead twice, missing a one-on-one and curling a shot just wide.
