Mac Allister double sparks Liverpool’s thrilling comeback win against Villarreal

Alexis Mac Allister scored twice as Liverpool rallied from two goals down to defeat Villarreal 4-3 in the Champions League at Anfield. Villarreal initially took control through early goals from Georges Mikautadze and Sergi Cardona following uncharacteristic errors from Virgil van Dijk. However, Mac Allister's header and a Ronald Araújo equalizer before halftime shifted the momentum back to the hosts.

Liverpool dominated the second half following the introduction of Florian Wirtz and strong play from winger Rio Ngumoha. Mac Allister netted his second from Ngumoha's cross before Wirtz added Liverpool's fourth. Although Tani Oluwaseyi scored a late third for Villarreal, Andoni Iraola's side held on to secure the victory.
