With the shadow of absent winger Mohamed Salah's recent falling-out with manager Arne Slot hanging over the team, Liverpool thought they had taken the lead through a close-range header from Ibrahima Konate, but a lengthy VAR review saw the goal chalked off for a Hugo Ekitike handball moments before.

The Premier League side had plenty of possession but struggled to create shots on target, and it took Alessandro Bastoni pulling the shirt of substitute Florian Wirtz late on and the referee pointing to the spot after another VAR review to give them the chance they desperately needed.

Szoboszlai stepped up and slammed the ball past keeper Yann Sommer to lift the Reds to eighth place in the table on 12 points after six of their eight group games. Inter is in fifth place, also on 12 points but with a superior goal difference.
