Fenerbahçe Beat Liverpool 3-2; Iraola Unhappy With Set-Piece Goals
Fenerbahçe beat Liverpool 3-2 in Matchday 4 of the Champions League, coming back from two deficits to secure their first win in the competition. Liverpool head coach Andoni Iraola criticized the goals conceded from set pieces in the defeat.

Fenerbahçe defeated England's Liverpool 3-2 in Matchday 4 of the Champions League at home. The yellow and navy side won their first Champions League match despite falling behind twice.
Fenerbahçe's goals came from Mason Greenwood in the 29th minute, Archie Brown in the 73rd minute and Vedat Muriqi in the 79th minute. Liverpool's goals came from Trey Nyoni in the 25th minute and Alexander Isak in the 69th minute.
Speaking after the match, Liverpool head coach Andoni Iraola pointed to the periods when his team took the lead and controlled the game. However, he said they conceded goals because of mistakes in defense.
Iraola said the most important reason for their defeat was the three goals they conceded from set pieces. Reminding that his team had been very good at this in the league, the Spanish coach said they conceded from a free kick, a corner and a long throw-in at the end of the match. Iraola stressed that it is difficult to play in this situation.
