He has now scored five goals in his previous four games, a new career high.

At Anfield, the 22-year-old kept up his remarkable goal scoring run, but it was insufficient since Joel Matip's late header against the Dutch champions earned the Reds their first victory in the competition.

As a result of numerous opportunities Liverpool produced and Mohamed Salah's goal after a ball from Diogo Jota, Liverpool earned the lead.


Matip's header in the 89th minute won it after Kudus' scorching effort bounced in off the underside of the bar to equalize.

Late in the game, Daley Blind wasted a fantastic opportunity to give Ajax the lead before Matip rose to head in a corner despite the visitors' best efforts to clear the ball off the line.

For Kudus, who also scored and supplied an assist as Ajax hammered Rangers 4-0 in Amsterdam last week, it is his second Champions League goal in as many games. Before Brian Brobbey took over, he played for 86 minutes. Kudus has played nine times for Ajax this season in all competitions, recording six goals and one assist.

Rio Ferdinand, a veteran of Manchester United, thinks Mohammed Kudus has taken Antony's place.

Rio Ferdinand, a former player for Manchester United, claims that despite Mohammed Kudus' outstanding performances, who scored in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Liverpool in the UEFA Champions League, Ajax won't be without Brazilian forward Antony. At Anfield, the 22-year-old kept up his remarkable goal scoring run, but it was insufficient since Joel Matip's late header against the Dutch champions earned the Reds their first victory in the competition. Kudus has now scored five goals for Ajax in his past four outings.

"They have Kudus, but they have also added Bergwijn, who has had a strong start to the season. Incredible and unbelievable finishes (against the Rangers), "After the game, Ferdinand spoke with BT Sport.


"There, Edwin [Van der Sar, the CEO of Ajax], is probably asking himself, "Antony who?" right now. Even if Antony is an excellent player, there is no better way to begin than with such quick productivity."

Brian Brobbey took over for Kudus in the 86th minute.
