As it happened: Liverpool 2-2 Sevilla – reds begin Champions League campaign

The long wait is over, as the reds return to the Champions League group stage.

After the 6-3 aggregate win over Hoffenheim, the reds can open their campaign properly against Sevilla, the team who denied Liverpool a Europa League trophy in May 2016 and the route to last season's Champions League.

Sevilla are making their 5th appearance in the group stages - this is Liverpool's 10th appearance since the European Cup was rebranded as the Champions League.

Tonight's game will be the last appearance Sadio Mane will make for a number of weeks - his three match ban begins at the weekend.  Most importantly Liverpool will be looking to banish memories of that 5-0 defeat at the weekend.
