Watch the goals and key plays as Liverpool and PSG square off in Group C play in the UEFA Champions League. Two of the world's most explosive clubs did not disappoint in their Champions League opener. Liverpool blew a 2-0 home lead vs. PSG, but Roberto Firmino came off the bench to deliver a stoppage-time winner for the Reds in a 3-2 triumph at Anfield on Tuesday. For all the attacking starpower on both sides, it was Daniel Sturridge and James Milner who staked Liverpool out to their lead. Thomas Meunier pulled one back before halftime and Kylian Mbappe scored the equalizer, but Firmino, who had his eye severely poked in Liverpool's win over Tottenham over the weekend, had the final say. Liverpool fired the match's first warning shot, and it came, oddly, from center back Virgil van Dijk. Milner found the Dutchman across the box, and he whipped in a sixth minute chance that goalkeeper Alphonse Areola parried to safety. Areola was called into action a minute later, with Milner the one trying to pick out the lower right-hand corner, only for the keeper to come up with the diving save. PSG's first chance came in the 17th minute, when Neymar and Cavani both had chances from a similar spot. Angel Di Maria set up Neymar for a close-range effort from the left, one that Alisson parried into Cavani's path. The Uruguayan couldn't direct it with full power, and Alisson made the follow-up save. Sturridge made good on his opportunity to start at the half-hour mark when he opened the scoring on a header. Andy Robertson kept the ball alive in the final third after an overhit cross, sending in one of his own from the left. Sturridge, who got the start in place of Firmino, was first to it with a powerful header, giving Liverpool the 1-0 lead. PSG nearly equalized immediately through Mbappe. Off a clever corner kick routine, Mbappe was left unmarked inside the Liverpool box. His first-time chance was overhit, though, sailing over the bar. PSG was left to rue that moments later. Juan Bernat, the new defensive signing from Bayern Munich, fouled Georginio Wijnaldum in the box, and Milner converted on the ensuing spot kick to make it 2-0 in the 36th minute. PSG was able to pull one back soon after. Cavani whiffed on a bicycle kick attempt, but the rebound fell to Thomas Meunier, who hit an expert volley to beat Alisson and bring PSG within 2-1 in the 40th minute. It appeared that Liverpool had taken a 3-1 lead just before the hour mark, when Salah tapped home into an empty net, but the goal was taken off the board because of what happened moments before. Wijnaldum's cross took a deflection off a defender and flew into the path of Sturridge. PSG's defenders all looked for an offside flag that never came, and Sturridge cleated Areola in the groin as the goalkeeper came off his line to claim the ball. It eventually fell to Salah, who scored, until the referee disallowed it. Liverpool continued to push for an insurance goal, and it never came, which opened the door for PSG to equalize. And off a Salah turnover in the midfield, that's exactly what PSG did. Salah's giveaway sparked an immediate counter, with Julian Draxler and Neymar setting up Mbappe in the box. The 19-year-old sensation beat Alisson with a powerful finish, making it 2-2 in the 83rd minute. Liverpool didn't wilt after conceding, though, and it found a winner through Firmino. The Brazilian star came off the bench and delivered precisely what Jurgen Klopp desired, cutting back on his defender and converting to tuck a low, right-footed opporunity inside the far post and giving Liverpool the 3-2 edge. Here were the lineups for both sides: Liverpool continues Champions League play on Matchday 2 when it travels to Napoli, while PSG heads home to host Red Star Belgrade on Oct. 3.<doc-sep>Last updated on .From the section Liverpool Roberto Firmino scored his third goal of the season for Liverpool after being introduced as a substitute Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said he "loved" Roberto Firmino's celebration of his injury-time winning goal against Paris St-Germain. The Brazilian was introduced as a substitute after suffering an eye injury in a clash with Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen at Wembley on Saturday. And he mimicked having a patch on his left eye after scoring late on. "To come off the bench after his injury at the weekend is incredible really," said Klopp. Daniel Sturridge, Firmino's replacement in Klopp's starting XI, had given the Reds the lead, which James Milner then doubled with a penalty following a foul on Georginio Wijnaldum. However, Thomas Meunier got one back for PSG before the break and Kylian Mbappe equalised with seven minutes of normal time remaining. "Daniel played a super game," Klopp added. "I have never seen him as fit as he is in the moment. Then you can bring Bobby Firmino on and that helps a lot. I can't say enough good things about Bobby."<doc-sep>
On paper, Tuesday's Champions League showdown between Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain had the potential to be something special. In reality, it was just that. An amazing back-and-forth contest looked likely to end in a draw thanks to Kylian Mbappe's late equalizer, but a strike in the 92nd minute gave the Reds an impressive 3-2 win in the opener, earning three points against their top rival in the group. Five goals, tons of dramatic moments and a late winner, this one had it all. Here's how it went down: The match started with Liverpool looking like the stronger side, controlling the ball well and defending with organization and well-timed challenges. While PSG was able to get forward and create a couple chances, Liverpool would open the scoring 30 minutes in through this header from Daniel Sturridge: Then newcomer Juan Bernat committed a silly foul on Georginio Wijnaldum, resulting in a penalty kick that James Milner would finish: Down 2-0 and needing something, PSG got it. Defender Thomas Meunier came up with a loose ball in the box and put it away near post, leaving Alisson frozen: Then in the second half, Liverpool decided to defend in numbers, aiming to take the three points, but PSG would draw level in the 83rd minute with a clever finish inside the box from Kylian Mbappe after an error from Mohamed Salah: From there, with just seven minutes left, it looked like the teams would leave with a point each, but Roberto Firmino had other plans. PSG had an error of its own from Mbappe, and Firmino, days after getting poked in the eye, finished inside the box with class to seal the win: It's a massive statement win for the Reds, who manage to beat arguably the most talented team in Europe with a convincing performance in attack. It's a match where they held Neymar to nothing, dealt with some adversity late and managed to leave with three points, as the team continues its undefeated run to start the season. Liverpool is now 6-0-0 on the campaign with five Premier League wins on top of Tuesday's. Relive Liverpool vs. PSG If the live blog doesn't load properly, please click here.
