# Liverpool: Fans hail Kostas Tsimikas performance

**A number of Liverpool supporters have hailed Kostas Tsimikas’ impressive performance in the Reds’ 2-0 win at home to Atletico Madrid.**

Jurgen Klopp’s men cruised into the Champions League knockout stages on Wednesday evening, seeing off Atletico with ease at Anfield.

Diogo Jota opened the scoring from a trademark Trent Alexander-Arnold cross before Sadio Mane doubled Liverpool’s lead from close-range.

Felipe’s red card before half-time effectively ended the game as a contest and the Reds were able to cruise through the rest of proceedings.

It was a night when numerous Liverpool players shone and Tsimikas was superb at left-back, impressing in place of Andy Robertson.

The Greece star played four key passes and created three big chances (one more than Alexander-Arnold), per [Sofascore](https://www.sofascore.com/liverpool-atletico-madrid/UsLgb), highlighting his attacking quality throughout with an [8.0 match rating](https://www.sofascore.com/liverpool-atletico-madrid/UsLgb) which was second only to the England international on the other flank.
