Fenerbahce hit back twice to hand Liverpool a famous Champions League defeat and end the Reds' perfect start after four games.
Liverpool's flawless Champions League run is over. Fenerbahce rallied from behind not once but twice to beat the Reds in Turkey and end their 100 percent record after four matches.
The English side had looked in control of their group, collecting maximum points and setting a ferocious early pace. Fenerbahce had other ideas. Each time Liverpool took the lead, the Turkish side answered, feeding off a hostile home atmosphere and refusing to let the visitors settle.
That resilience proved decisive. Liverpool could not close out the game after going ahead, and Fenerbahce took advantage, pushing forward with real belief until the win was secure. For the home side, it ranks among the biggest European nights in their recent history.
For Liverpool, the defeat is a reminder of how tough Champions League away days can be. The perfect start is gone, but their group position still gives them plenty to play for. They will want a quick response, and a much tighter display when leading, in the games ahead.
