Future bright for Benitez 
Benitez has written himself into Liverpool history with his 40th European victory as Anfield manager, but it was the performances of his kids against PSV Eindhoven which pleased the Spaniard the most.
The convincing 3-1 win over PSV in their last Champions League pool match - which confirmed top spot in Group D - set a points record at this stage of the competition and saw Benitez overtake Bob Paisley's club record number of wins in Europe.
- European debuts
Lucas and David Ngog were outstanding against an increasingly dispirited Dutch side.
Once Ryan Babel had equalised Danko Lazovic's opener for PSV there was only going to be one winner with Albert Riera and Ngog scoring fine second-half goals.
Benitez said: "It is always good to be able to bring on local youngsters, produced by the club. And Stephen Darby, Jay Spearing and Martin Kelly all did well on their European debuts. Everything went right and I was delighted with the overall performance. There were plenty of positives for the club and its future."
