Sadio Mané was in inspirational form as Liverpool thrashed favourites Barcelona 4-0 to book a place in their second successive UEFA Champions League final.

The Senegalese forward shook off the absence of Mohammed Salah and Roberto Firmino, the other two members of Liverpool’s famed forward line as his unwavering performance was instrumental to the result.

He didn’t get on the scoresheet but he tormented the Barcelona defence from start to finish with his intelligent runs, pressing and hold up play.
