Liverpool began their Champions League campaign with an impressive 3-1 win over AC Milan at the San Siro on Tuesday, bouncing back from an early setback to claim all three points in the revamped tournament.

Christian Pulisic put Milan ahead just three minutes into the game, punishing a sluggish Liverpool defense with a sharp finish.

However, the Reds responded strongly, with goals from Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk, and Dominik Szoboszlai sealing the win.

Arne Slot’s team was in top form, controlling the match with their relentless pressing and nearly extending their lead multiple times, with Mohamed Salah hitting the woodwork twice in the first half.

The win was a welcome return to form for Liverpool after a disappointing loss to Nottingham Forest over the weekend.

For Milan, the loss added pressure on new coach Paulo Fonseca, with fans expressing their discontent as the team prepares for a crucial Milan derby against Inter this weekend.

Liverpool, meanwhile, looked sharp and poised to continue their strong start in the Champions League.
