From the source
Liverpool suffered their first defeat in the UEFA Champions League this season after losing 3-2 at Fenerbahce on Wednesday evening. The Reds were in control for most of the game, but were let down by defensive lapses, allowing Fenerbahce to record their first win in the competition since 2008.
Trey Nyoni put Liverpool ahead with a deflected shot in the 25th minute, becoming the youngest player to score his first goal for the club in a European match.
Fenerbahce responded immediately, with Mason Greenwood drawing the hosts level with a deflected free-kick. The Turkish side then began to control proceedings. Greenwood almost gave them the lead before halftime, but he was denied by Alisson Becker.
