Just before the end, the centre-back rose and poked the ball just over the goal line. Ajax were cleared, but the goal line technology revealed that it was a goal. Thus, Liverpool took three important points in the Champions League, after the defeat against Napoli last week. – This could have consequences for the rest of the season. Had they conceded points here as well, the journey would have been very long in the Champions League. Klopp can breathe a sigh of relief, reported TV 2’s expert, Petter Myhre. After a few tough weeks, it seemed that the red-clad wanted to get right back on track in the Champions League, and top scorer Mohamed Salah gave the home team a dream start. Diogo Jota played the Egyptian beautifully, and alone with the goalkeeper, Salah easily put the ball into the goal. Then followed an unparalleled cannonade from Liverpool. Time and again they put Ajax to the test, but wasted their chances. First, Luis Diaz fired in from close range, but the ball hit the outside of the post. Only a minute later, Jota seized the opportunity himself, but again the ball went on the wrong side of the woodwork. But then what often happens to a team in adversity happened – the missed chance cost them dearly. Only five minutes passed before Ajax made Liverpool suffer for their mistakes.

Liverpool pressed on, and tried to get back into the lead, but Ajax were so close to running away with the three points. A quarter of an hour before the end, Daley Blind had to stand alone on the back post, but the header went a few centimeters wide of the far post. Then Liverpool’s new favorite had the opportunity to save the day, but Darwin Núñez was also unable to put the ball between the posts. In the end, it took a centre-back to save the day and give them three important points.
