Liverpool recorded three points in Group B after defeating Atletico Madrid 3-2 in their Champions League clash at the Wanda Metropolitano.
The Reds stormed into a 2-0 lead through Mohamed Salah and Naby Keita. However, the hosts answered through a brace from Antoine Griezmann to level the scores at the break.
Meanwhile Diego Simeone men were reduced to ten when Griezmann was dismissed for a high boot on Roberto Firmino.
Liverpool regained the lead after Diogo Jota was pulled down by Mario Hermoso in the box, allowing Salah to convert from the penalty spot.
Atletico Madrid got a penalty call minutes later the referee then awarded Atletico a spot-kick after Jota appeared to push Jose Gimenez, only for the official to overturn his decision after consulting the screen at the side of the pitch.
