Liverpool left it late to beat Ajax but Joel Matip's late Anfield header blew Champions League Group A wide open.
The Merseysiders looked back to their best in the early stages and that sense of rolling back the months continued when Mohamed Salah opened the scoring with a clinical finish. Ajax were holding on and could have gone two behind when Virgil van Dijk header over - but it took them just ten minutes to get level.
The equaliser came through Mohammed Kudus, who fired home his second goal in two Champions League games in some style. After netting against Rangers in Amsterdam last week, he rifled one into Alisson's top corner to silence Anfield before the half-hour mark. The Reds struggled to fine their rhythm after that with Luis Diaz firing into the side-netting. But the introductions of Darwin Nunez and Roberto Firmino turned the tide and they eventually picked up their first win of the Champions League campaign.
