Palace strike late

The defending champions were undone by goals from Ismaila Sarr in the 9th minute & Eddie Nketiah deep into stoppage time.

Federico Chiesa's late equaliser (87) briefly raised Liverpool's hopes but Palace struck again to seal the upset.

Salah's mixed performance

Salah started under Arne Slot and remained on the pitch throughout but he struggled to impose himself.

His early free kick was blocked by the wall and several efforts were either off target or denied by Palace's defence and goalkeeper.

The Egyptian also clashed with the referee in the 2nd half after appeals for foul were waved away.
