20 years on, there was no miracle in Istanbul as Liverpool’s tough run continued with a 1-0 defeat to Galatasaray in the Champions League, a night that piled on more frustration for Arne Slot’s side. Victor Osimhen’s penalty was the difference, but it was the injuries that stung most, with Alisson among those forced off. After a patchy start in the league, this result couldn’t have come at a worse time, especially with a huge showdown against Chelsea up next.

Across Europe, there was plenty more drama. Man City let a two-goal lead slip as Monaco snatched a late equaliser for 2-2, while Spurs found themselves in last year's semi-final repeat with a 2-2 draw against Bodo/Glimt. Chelsea ground out a scrappy 1-0 over Benfica in a match full of cards, Arsenal were comfortable in their 2-0 win over Olympiakos, and Newcastle ran riot with a 4-0 thrashing of Royal Union SG, led by two goals from Anthony Gordon. To top it all off, PSG pulled off a last-gasp winner at the Camp Nou against Barcelona to round off a wild week of European football. All that plus PL action on this week' Just For Kicks.
