A clinical strike, initiated by a hurried Alisson kick-out, led to Haaland’s breakthrough.

The Norwegian, fed by Ake, calmly found the net, leaving the Reds’ goalkeeper regretting his rash decision that sparked the pivotal play.

Former record holder Andy Cole’s pacey half-century milestone was eclipsed by Haaland’s lightning-fast accomplishment, affirming the striker’s unparalleled impact.
