Liverpool recover from conceding early to beat Milan 3-1 on their manager's birthday

SLOT HAILS REDS' STRONG COMEBACK

On a night that saw Arne Slot and Paulo Fonseca each take the managerial reins in a Champions League game with their new teams for the first time, their experiences could not have been more different.

Slot guided Liverpool to a resounding 3-1 victory over Fonseca's AC Milan following a shaky start at the San Siro on Sept 17, as his team remained calm after conceding a goal in just the third minute.

"To come back so strong and dominant, it was a deserved victory," said the Dutchman, who replaced much-heralded manager Jurgen Klopp at the Merseyside club this season.

"This is an evening I will remember in the future. Hopefully, many more times like this will come as Liverpool manager."

Ibrahima Konate, captain Virgil van Dijk and Dominik Szoboszlai scored for the Reds after Christian Pulisic capitalised on some disorganised defending by Slot's men for Milan's lone goal.
