Champions League defeat Rodgers’ Reds

The Swiss had beaten Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham in the last four years and added the five-time Champions League winners to that list to move ahead of their opponents in Group B after Marco Streller converted a 53rd-minute corner.
It was not as devastating or catastrophic as their last visit to St Jakob Park 12 years ago when a 3-3 draw - having been three down at half-time - sent them crashing out the competition.
