Liverpool was trying to equalize an adverse score in Italy, where Napoli surprised them at home in their debut for Group E of the Champions League. The one in charge of sealing the fate of the defending champion was Fernando Llorente.
Jurgen Klopp's team couldn't quite grasp that they were losing 1-0 on the 81st minute with a penalty goal from Dries Mertens, but they couldn't find the tools to equalize.
On the contrary, there was confusion in the Reds' defense and in injury time an error from Virgil van Dijk was taken advantage of by the substitute Fernando Llorente, who with just one touch on the ball managed to beat goalkeeper Adrián. Celebrations in Italy.
