Follow Daily Mail Sport's live coverage for the latest updates as Liverpool travel to Austria to take on LASK before Manchester City hosts reigning champions PSG in the Champions League.
HALF-TIME: LASK 0-3 Liverpool
Job done?
Liverpool will feel like it after a blistering first-half performance here in Austria. They have been superb.
It may 'only' be LASK, but a brace from Bradley Barcola and a header from Ronald Araujo has them flying.
Much more like it.
CHANCE! LASK 0-3 Liverpool
Florian Wirtz has his assist; now he wants his goal.
The German decides to let rip from 25 yards, bending a beauty toward the bottom corner.
It's a fine strike but the goalkeeper does well to get down low and beat it away.
'All attackers on fire'
Lewis Steele at Raiffeisen Arena:
The obvious caveat is that LASK are one of the weaker teams in this competition but this is the best Liverpool have played under Andoni Iraola. The score is 3-0 but it could be five or six. All of the attackers are on fire.
CHANCE! LASK 0-3 Liverpool
Samuel Adeniran has barely had a sniff for LASK tonight, but he finally gets involved here.
The striker decides to just go alone, cutting inside and having a strike at goal.
It's easy pickings for Alisson, though.
Bradley Barcola and Florian Wirtz are showing why it cost an arm and a leg to get them to Liverpool.
In Europe, they are different beasts.
When given some space, they punish you, and that is what they have done to LASK tonight. They need to build on tonight at the weekend, though.
Goal:LASK 0-3 Liverpool (Barcola 37')
I predict a riot!
Or shall I say, rowt. Liverpool have another; Bradley Barcola has another, and the Reds are having a field day out there.
Florian Wirtz produces a magical turn and pass to feed Barcola, who rolls the ball into the corner with ease.
Game over already?
CLOSE! LASK 0-2 Liverpool
That's more like it from LASK.
They manage to break free from their own half for the first time in what feels like a while.
The ball is worked to Austrian striker Christoph Lang and he has a dig, but it rolls wide.
Close but no cigar.
LASK 0-2 Liverpool
Oh boy, Bradley Barcola is having fun out there.
He is full to the brim with confidence now, producing a lovely little nutmeg before trying to find the corner.
But his effort is blocked before the Reds win a corner... which comes to nothing.
A third goal feels nigh.
OFF THE POST! LASK 0-2 Liverpool
HOW HAS THAT NOT GONE IN???
Oh my word, I can't believe it. Ryan Gravenberch looks set to score as he slides the ball past the goalkeeper. But no, it hits the post and rolls along the line but not across it.
There is a lovely little nutmeg from Florian Wirtz in the build-up, too. Cheeky.
DISALLOWED GOAL! - Liverpool
Oh no, oh no, oh no...
Just as I was lauding Lewis Koumas with praise, it looks as though he has netted a magical first Champions League goal.
Koumas produces one hell of a turn before rounding the goalkeeper to find the net.
But the flag is up; he made his run too early. So unlucky.
LASK 0-2 Liverpool
I'll tell you what, Lewis Koumas is having a stormer of a first half here.
The Welsh striker is everywhere. He is working his little socks off for this team. He somehow manages to win a throw-in when the ball seemed destined to go out for a goal kick there.
And don't forget, he showed his quality in the build-up for that second goal too.
A star in the making.
LASK 0-2 Liverpool
And breathe...
There is finally some sense of calm after a chaotic few minutes, and well, what a few minutes if you're Liverpool.
We have been waiting for their new-look side to explode into action this season, and that may well have been the explosion.
They have a spring in their step tonight.
