Ajax 0-1 Liverpool: Tagliafico own goal rewards Reds three points in UCL opener

Brilliant result for Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool, with the week they've had with injuries, getting off to a winning start and a clean sheet was just what the doctor ordered! Ajax came at Liverpool in the second half but much like the first half, there was no end product when it really mattered.
