Bayer Leverkusen completed the Europa League group stage with a 5-1 rout of Norwegian club Molde to remain unbeaten across all competitions this season.

The Bundesliga leaders finished as the only team with a perfect record in Europe’s second-tier tournament with six wins from six in Group H.

Patrik Schick and Edmond Tapsoba scored and Martin Ellingsen’s own goal made it 3-0 before half-time in Leverkusen. Adam Hlozek added two more in the second half for Xabi Alonso’s team.

Leverkusen extended their unbeaten streak to 23 games.

Union Saint-Gilloise handed Liverpool a 2-1 loss at a game played at RSC Anderlecht Stadium in Brussels.

Messi shirts fetch $7.8m

New York: Six jerseys worn by football superstar Lionel Messi during Argentina’s winning run at last year’s World Cup sold for $7.8 million, the auction house Sotheby’s said.

The final price for the shirts, each worn during the first half of one of Argentina’s games in Qatar, is the highest price for an item of sports memorabilia this year, Sotheby’s said.

“These historic shirts are not only a tangible reminder of one of the most important moments in the history of sports, but are principally connected to the pinnacle moment in the career of the most decorated football player in history,” Brahm Wachter, Sotheby’s head of modern collectibles, said in a statement.
