Liverpool’s perfect Uefa Champions League start ended in a 3-2 defeat at Fenerbahce, while Como produced one of the greatest away performances in the competition’s history with a 9-1 demolition of Lens on Wednesday.
19-year-old Trey Nyoni gave Liverpool the lead with his first senior goal in Istanbul, but a deflected Mason Greenwood free-kick levelled matters.
Alexander Isak headed the Reds back in front on 69 minutes, only for Archie Brown to equalise immediately and Vedat Muriqi to win it for the hosts, led on an interim basis by ex-Liverpool man Dirk Kuyt.
Como were the story of the night in France.
Cesc Fabregas’ side became only the third team since 1992 to win by an eight-goal margin, after Liverpool’s 8-0 win over Besiktas in 2007 and Real Madrid’s 8-0 win over Malmo in 2015.
Anastasios Douvikas scored a hat-trick, Nico Paz made it 3-0 by half-time and Lucas Da Cunha, Marc-Oliver Kempf, Mattia Liberali, Martin Baturina and Matteo Papaccioli also scored.
Ruben Aguilar pulled one back for Lens but Como are now fourth with nine points from four games.
Real Madrid maintained their perfect record with another late comeback, beating AEK Athens 3-2.
Jude Bellingham’s back-heel cancelled out Aboubakary Koita’s opener, Stavros Pilios put AEK ahead again, but Kylian Mbappe levelled and Federico Valverde won it in stoppage time.
Arsenal won 2-1 at Slavia Prague through Noni Madueke and Viktor Gyokeres, while Erling Haaland’s late goal gave Manchester City a 3-2 win at RB Leipzig.
The results came a day after Manchester United came from 2-0 down to beat Roma 3-2, with Matheus Cunha scoring twice while holders PSG thrashed Villarreal 6-0 to go top.
