Overview

• Victor Osimhen scored a 16th-minute winner from the spot after Dominik Szoboszlai’s trailing arm was judged to have caught Baris Alper Yilmaz, before a late Liverpool penalty was overturned on VAR.
• Alisson Becker exited injured in the second half and Arne Slot confirmed he will not play at Chelsea; Hugo Ekitike also went off and is under assessment.
• Slot rotated his side by benching Mohamed Salah and Alexander Isak and deployed Szoboszlai at right-back with Jeremie Frimpong further forward, a selection questioned by pundits.
• Liverpool have three points from two Champions League matches, with big-money signings Florian Wirtz still searching for end product and Isak short of full fitness.
• Virgil van Dijk called for calm after consecutive defeats, while elsewhere Everton must reshuffle with Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall suspended after a fifth booking.
