Fenerbahce came from behind to beat Liverpool in the Champions League, with Trey Nyoni impressing but several others underperforming in Turkiye. This is what we spotted.

Liverpool's dire run of form in matches in Turkiye continued, with Fenerbahce completing a comeback victory thanks to a late-ish goal from Vedat Muriqi.

The excellent Trey Nyoni and Mason Greenwood both scored deflected goals in the first half, with Liverpool's initial lead only lasting four minutes. Kostas Tsimikas could have been sent off for shoving Greenwood in the penalty area only a minute before the Reds broke the deadlock.

Alexander Isak came off the bench and put the Reds ahead but Archie Brown and then Muriqi netted for the hosts. Here are the five things Liverpool.com spotted as the game unfolded.

Andoni Iraola's changes prove mixed

Andoni Iraola made five changes from the weekend's defeat to Arsenal, with Dominik Szoboszlai and Victor Munoz among them, starting their first matches back after injury. Joe Gomez got a go, and Bradley Barcola filled in (or at least tried to) up top.

"I think we should be mobile, and I think we should attack the spaces that are there," Iraola explained when asked about his attacking team selection. It didn't really work like that, however.

Even with the rotation, Liverpool saw more of the ball from the off, albeit without being that decisive. Tsimikas was lucky with his push on Greenwood and Jeremy Jacquet should not have turned his back when the ex-Manchester United man beat Alisson Becker.

Liverpool didn't especially need to win this game, and Iraola was right to make the changes, but it did make for a bit of a disjointed showing. Those who came in didn't impress, and there looked to be too many unsure of those around them.

Trey Nyoni exceptional

Trey Nyoni was excellent for Liverpool against Arsenal, and the Reds looked less balanced without him in the team. It should have been no surprise, then, that he was in the starting XI here.

Just 19, Nyoni, who is said to be close to signing a new contract that will reward his progress, was very calm here. One early ball around the corner got him out of trouble, and everything just looked so effortless.

His goal saw Ederson wrong-footed via a deflection, but it came from a cool and composed effort when he anticipated where the ball was set to drop. Even when everyone is fit in midfield, his jersey will be hard to take from him.

Bradley Barcola experiment fails

Lewis Koumas has been good for Liverpool this season whenever he has been required to fill in. With Barcola, Munoz and Rio Ngumoha available, though, Iraola went with them as a front three instead.

The Barcola experiment didn't pay off at all. He wasn't able to get involved at all, really, whether that was in build-up or to provide the finishing touch.

The one moment when Barcola came to life as a striker was when he popped up on the left wing by accident and drove inside to unleash a shot. It was no coincidence that out wide, he suddenly looked like a completely different player.

He had a fresh spring in his step when he replaced Munoz on the right as well, but even that didn't last. The Frenchman is a top player, but this was a night to forget.

Defensive issues costly

Liverpool had scored 12 goals in three Champions League games heading into this one. That is the most the Reds have netted at that point in a European Cup or Champions League campaign since 1980/81, a season in which they went on to lift the trophy.

Meanwhile, Fenerbahce lost 6-0 to Aston Villa last month, but this was always going to be a completely different test for Liverpool. On home soil, Dirk Kuyt's side is a very different beast.

It didn't help that Jacquet was so poor and Alisson seemed all over the place for the second and third goals. Virgil van Dijk did his best and Gomez was decent enough, but alongside Tsimikas, who could have been sent off, it was a defensive shambles.

While Liverpool has scored 14 goals in the Champions League now this term, it has also conceded 10. That, clearly, is a problem.

Champions League table and state of play

Having won all of its matches so far this season in the Champions League before this game, Iraola knew that the pressure was off to some degree. Liverpool has a poor record away in Turkiye (it has only ever won there once) and despite this result, should still sail through.

Last year, teams needed 10 points to secure a place in the play-off round and 16 to avoid it and head straight into the last-16. Halfway through this season's league phase, Liverpool already has nine, with Club Brugge, Porto, Inter Milan and Lens still to play.

That was why Isak and Florian Wirtz started on the bench. The biggest game of the week is at Selhurst Park on Sunday, and disappointing though this was, that is the reality.
