Overview

• Galatasaray beat Liverpool 1-0 after Victor Osimhen converted a 16th‑minute penalty awarded for Dominik Szoboszlai’s trailing arm on Baris Alper Yilmaz.
• Referee Clément Turpin overturned a late on‑field penalty for Liverpool after a VAR review led by Jerome Brisard.
• Alisson exited injured following a one‑on‑one save on Osimhen, and Arne Slot confirmed the goalkeeper will not play at Chelsea; Giorgi Mamardashvili finished the match.
• Hugo Ekitike also limped off, with Slot saying the forward’s weekend availability is uncertain pending assessment.
• Slot’s rotation—benching Mohamed Salah and Alexander Isak and using Szoboszlai at right‑back—drew criticism as defensive lapses persisted, leaving Liverpool with consecutive defeats for only the second time under his tenure.
