This was the Night of the Fightback!

Sevilla 3-3 Liverpool

Where do you start after football games like this?

A sports betting thriller which was a night for kamikaze live betting and a simply stunning climax.

At half-time, I was considering two thoughts.

Was Liverpool’s free-flowing attack with pace to burn capable of threatening any top side in Europe? This after a Roberto Firmino double and a Sadio Mane header threatened a Sevilla rout and left the Spaniards reeling.

Or was this outfit highly suspect defensively and only a poor imitation of the side which defeated the Merseysiders in the 2016 Europa League Final?

In the end, I decided to not to dwell on either point, although both had merit.

Ultimately, I just decided to enjoy the classic game of two halves.

For 45 minutes, Liverpool destroyed Sevilla on their turf with a performance of power, panache and pace. The hosts looked shell-shocked.

Then Sevilla turned the tables with panache and pace of their own as a quick-fire double from Wissam Ben Yedder, including a re-taken penalty, lifted the spirits inside the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan.

Suddenly, it was Liverpool who could barely get out of their own half; suddenly, it was Sevilla who were creating chances at will in a wave of attacking football.

Against his former club, Alberto Moreno was arguably at fault for both goals and, after initial improvement at the start of this term, the Spaniard will come under the radar once more from his own fans

A double substitution repelled the tide slightly and Liverpool threatened to kill the game on the counter-attack.

However, just when it looked like they had done enough, a remarkable turnaround was completed when Guido Pizarro converted to cue pandemonium.

Defensive frailty from both sides but the attacking was a joy to watch for the neutral.

Perhaps any inquests which follow can be tempered by the fact both clubs are in pole position to qualify.

This was a stunning night!
