UCL: LIVERPOOL, CHELSEA BOTH SUFFER DEFEAT
Napoli beat Liverpool at the San Paolo for the second season running, as a Dries Mertens penalty and Fernando Llorente strike stunned the Champions League holders.
With Jasper Cillessen in fine form and Mason Mount’s injury having compounded Chelsea’s frustrations, the Blues’ frailties were exposed once more when Rodrigo Moreno prodded in Dani Parejo’s free-kick with16 minutes remaining.
VAR came to Chelsea’s rescue when the referee decided to award the hosts a spot-kick for a Daniel Wass handball, but substitute Barkley – who overruled Willian to take the penalty – struck the bar.
