First goal an 'important' moment for McTominay

Both clubs suffered domestic setbacks on Tuesday evening, after a pair of surprising results.

The Reds were beaten 2-1 at Molineux Stadium, where Scott McTominay broke the deadlock before a Diogo Jota equaliser and Chris Smalling own goal gave the home side three Premier League points.

Meanwhile, in Spain’s La Liga, runaway leaders Barcelona travelled to Villarreal and recorded an unexpected 4-4 draw against the Yellow Submarine, who are still fighting to avoid relegation.

Barcelona, who had Lionel Messi resting on the bench, took the lead early on with a close-range finish from Philippe Coutinho.
