Fenerbahçe beat Liverpool 3-2 in Champions League after twice coming from behind

Fenerbahçe defeated Liverpool 3-2 at home in the fourth week of the UEFA Champions League, according to a report by the Turkish outlet Fotomac. The Turkish side came from behind twice before Vedat Muriç headed the winner in the 79th minute.

Liverpool took the lead in the 25th minute through Nyoni, whose shot from outside the area deflected in off Oppong. Mason Greenwood equalised in the 29th minute with a free kick that also struck a defender in the wall. Alexander Isak restored Liverpool's lead in the 69th minute, heading in from close range after a Gakpo cross, before Archie Brown levelled at 2-2 in the 73rd minute from a tight angle at the far post.

The match at the Fenerbahçe Şükrü Saracoğlu Sports Complex was refereed by Clement Turpin of France. Fenerbahçe coach Dirk Kuyt made three changes from the starting line-up against Göztepe, bringing in Archie Brown, İsmail Yüksek and Mason Greenwood. Marco Asensio and Nathan Ake were unavailable through injury.

Fenerbahçe had announced the previous day that they had reached an agreement with Emre Belözoğlu for the head coaching position, and he watched the match from the stands. A minute's silence was held before kick-off for the Spanish Tenerife player Jesus de Miguel, who died after a collision on the pitch.
