Fenerbahce secured a dramatic 3-2 victory over Liverpool in Istanbul, with former Reds forward Dirk Kuyt playing a pivotal role against his old club. The Turkish side overturned a match in which Liverpool, managed by Andoni Iraola, twice held the lead but ultimately succumbed to a late collapse.
Kuyt, a fan favorite during his six-year spell at Anfield, delivered a performance that stunned the visitors and delighted the home crowd. Liverpool's inability to maintain their advantages proved costly as Fenerbahce capitalized on defensive lapses to claim a memorable win.
