Liverpool pulled a draw against Newcastle thanks to a penalty converted by Dominik Szoboszlai in the dying moments of the match. The result secures a point for the side as they kick off the era under Andoni Iraola.

Despite avoiding defeat at the end of the game, the Reds’ performance fell short of what fans and pundits expected. The outcome underscores the need for the team to deliver markedly better displays in future fixtures of the competition.

On the opposition side, Newcastle lamented the stoppage‑time incident that cost them victory, while the start of Iraola’s tenure offers a brief lift, yet it is clear that much work remains for the club.
