Mohamed Salah was made to pay for a penalty miss as Liverpool suffered defeat against Lyon in Dubai in a mid-season friendly.
Fabio Carvalho put the Reds in front inside a minute, tapping home after some suspect defending from Laurent Blanc's side. It was almost two within 15 minutes, as Roberto Firmino was brought down in the box by Malo Gusto, but Salah's penalty was saved by Anthony Lopes and Blanc's men made him pay with an equaliser before the break.
Jurgen Klopp's men will be back in domestic action on December 22, with an EFL Cup trip to Manchester City, and the manager named a strong side for the first of two friendlies before that game. While a number of Reds stars have been out on World Cup duty, there was room for the likes of Salah, Firmino and Thiago Alcantara in an experienced XI, though some fringe players also got minutes as the French side took the game away from Liverpool in the second half.
