Liverpool regained the top spot in the Champions League table and registered a first victory over Real Madrid in 15 years Wednesday with a dominant 2-0 win courtesy of goals from Alexis Mac Allister and Cody Gakpo.

Such was the Reds' superiority that they could afford the luxury of a rare Mohamed Salah penalty miss in between goals as they claimed a fifth win from five games to sit two points clear at the head of the new-look league format, reports ESPN.

On a miserable night for the Spaniards, now 24th in the 36-team competition, Kylian Mbappé was well-defended and also missed a penalty that would have drawn Madrid level against the run of play in the second half.

With Liverpool dominating possessions and chances against the Champions League holders, Mac Allister struck the opener in the 52nd minute after a neat one-two with Conor Bradley in front of a delirious Kop end at Anfield.

Gakpo sealed the victory in the 76th minute with a header past Thibaut Courtois from an Andy Robertson cross.
