Liverpool got back to winning ways with a 2-1 victory over Ajax in the Champions League last night. It was a much-needed win for the Reds, who had been struggling for form throughout the 2022/23 football season so far.
And after suffering an embarrassing 4-1 defeat at the hands of Napoli in their opening group game, anything other than three points simply wouldn’t have been good enough.
Fortunately, the return of their star midfielder Thiago coincided with a much-improved team performance that was narrowly enough to secure the side victory on the night.
Even if it did take an 89th minute Joel Matip header to seal the deal. Nevertheless, Thiago was masterful in his play, as shown in this mesmeric highlight package that we covered amid the fallout from the encounter.
