Fenerbahçe, coached by Dirk Kuyt, beat Iraola's Liverpool with late Muriqi goal
Fenerbahçe, coached by Dirk Kuyt, defeated an Iraola-managed Liverpool in Istanbul, according to the Spanish outlet AS. Muriqi, a former Mallorca player, scored the decisive goal late in the match.
Goals from Greenwood, Brown and Muriqi made Liverpool's strikes from Nyoni and Isak count for nothing, AS reported. The article described Greenwood as "defenestrated" without elaborating.
AS framed the result around Istanbul's place in Liverpool's history, noting the city hosted the club's 2005 Champions League final win, the first of two European Cups Liverpool has won there, and that it is not a place where the club usually wins. The report said Kuyt, a former Liverpool player, showed his old team no warmth as his side beat them.
The source did not state which team was at home, the competition, or the scoreline beyond the sequence of goalscorers.
