A Liverpool fan was captured celebrating on her own amongst the Rangers fans as she watched her team record a huge win in the Champions League.
In what was a must-win game for Jurgen Klopp’s men, two of his old guards, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah produced the goods as they scored a brace and a hat trick respectively, whilst goals from Darwin Nunez and Harvey Elliott meant Liverpool recorded a 7-1 win over the Scottish side.
Whilst Liverpool put on a big second-half performance on the pitch, one Liverpool fan stole the show from the stands.
According to iNews journalist, Daniel Austin, there was a Liverpool fan in the Rangers crowd clapping and cheering as the travelling Reds fans belted out their famous ‘Allez Allez Allez’ chant. You can watch the footage below.

As the video showed, she was enjoying herself whilst a number of disgruntled Rangers fans were showing their discontent towards the direction of the fan.
The next day, a fan named Caitlin McKeown claimed it was her that was amongst the home crowd showing her support for Liverpool.
It was a vital win for Klopp’s side as it left them requiring only one point from their remaining two group-stage games.
After the match, Klopp expressed his delight over his team’s performance ahead of this weekend’s crunch match against Manchester City.
He said: “It changed the mood definitely.
“It's completely different. We usually drink a beer after away games but it's that long ago if I drink a beer I'll probably be drunk after one. Yes, it changed the mood completely but we all know who we are welcoming on Sunday and this will be a different game, but it's better to go into it with this feeling we've got tonight than any other.”
Klopp also gave a special mention to his star man Salah, who scored the Champions League’s fastest-ever hat trick.
He said: “Special. Typical Mo. Very important, the whole thing, how the boys adapted to it, to the positions, to the line-up, the reaction of the boys on the pitch. I thought everybody who started tonight played really well.”
Liverpool will now be tasked with trying to halt a City side in rampant form and especially trying to prevent Erling Haaland from finding the back of the net.
