European champions Liverpool have posted their first win of the Champions League Group stage, but only after a scare.
They beat Red Bull Salzburg 4-3 in Group E at Anfield.
Sadio Mane, Andy Robertson and Mo Salah fired the Reds into a 3-0 lead in the first half, before the Austrians leveled it up.
However, Salah scored his second goal and Liverpool's winner with 21 minutes to go.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says his players can take a lot from the night.
