Liverpool refused to give up on their defence of the Champions League as Georginio Wijnaldum’s first-half header forced their last-16 tie with Atletico Madrid to extra-time with a 1-0 win at Anfield to level the score on aggregate at 1-1. The Dutch international, who netted twice in a 4-0 thrashing of Barcelona in last season’s semi-final, was the scourge of Spanish opposition once more as he headed home two minutes before half-time.

Atletico thought they had stolen the tie with the last touch of the game when Saul Niguez headed home a free-kick, but the Spanish midfielder was flagged offside to send the tie to an extra 30 minutes.
