If there’s one thing i noticed about Liverpool is that they are a different team when they are playing in the Champions League, in the Premierhsip thier consistency is lacking but somehow in the CL they have the form that could make them potential Champs.
Torres opened the scoring in the 19th minute at Anfield, but his side were pegged back when Porto’s Lisandro Lopez sent a header past keeper Pepe Reina in the 33rd minute.
Liverpool had to be patient before scoring three goals in the last 12 minutes, with Torres getting his second of the night, captain Steven Gerrard converting a penalty and substitute Peter Crouch nodding home with three minutes left.
Rafael Benitez’s team had previously looked on the verge of going out of the competition after picking up just one point from their opening three games in Group A.
