Liverpool conceded three set-piece goals as Fenerbahce handed the Reds their first Champions League defeat of the season.
- On Wednesday, Liverpool fell to a 3-2 defeat against Fenerbahce in the UEFA Champions League, marking the Premier League side's first loss of the campaign.
- Liverpool head coach Andoni Iraola attributed the loss to defensive failures on three set-pieces, stating, "We concede from a free-kick, a corner and even from the long throw."
- Trey Nyoni opened the scoring in the 25th minute, Mason Greenwood leveled via free-kick, and Alexander Isak restored Liverpool's lead in the 69th minute before Vedat Muriqi's 79th-minute winner secured victory for Fenerbahce.
- Liverpool left-back Kostas Tsimikas said after the match, "Congratulations to Fenerbahce, they deserve it," acknowledging the team's defensive lapses after scoring.
