PSG sink Barcelona in six-goal thriller, Liverpool and Man City win
At Anfield, Liverpool staged a remarkable comeback to defeat Villarreal 4-3 in the Champions League, despite trailing 2-0 at halftime. The Spanish side, coached by Inigo Perez, took an early lead after just four minutes; midfielder Georges Mikautadze netted the opener from close range after Virgil van Dijk miscontrolled a header back to goalkeeper Alisson Becker.
Villarreal continued to press, with forward Sergi Cardona capitalising on a fine team move to score the second goal in the first half. However, Liverpool showed resilience as Alexis Mac Allister and Ronald Araujo both equalised before halftime. Mac Allister's second goal, a looping header from a corner, came from a poor Villarreal defensive error.
Wirtz, brought on as a substitute, sealed the comeback with a goal in the second half, propelling Liverpool to the top of the Champions League table alongside Paris Saint-Germain with nine points from three games.
