Here are our player ratings (out of 10) following this dramatic victory under the Merseyside lights.
Alisson Becker - 7/10
Despite conceding three goals, he could do very little about any of them, with all three coming from lapses in concentration from one of the players in front of him.
Kostas Tsimikas - 6/10
Didn't do anything wrong, but also offered very little going forward. He was found too often being physically dominated, and taking too long to make decisions when releasing the ball.
Virgil van Dijk - 7/10
A rollercoaster of a performance for the Liverpool skipper. The bad came in the first five minutes, when he misplaced a header, allowing an onrushing Villarreal attacker to steal the ball and put the Reds 1-0 down.
But from that moment onwards, the Dutch defender only grew into the game, like LFC overall, and he made several key blocks, tackles and interceptions.
Jeremy Jacquet - 7.5/10
A flawless performance again from Jeremy Jacquet, and he is a player who is growing game by game, adapting to new pressures and surroundings perfectly.
Ronald Araujo - 7/10
The Uruguayan only played the first 45 minutes, which concerned fans, but Iraola confirmed after the game that his withdrawal was not injury-related.
As for his performance, it was a mixed bag. He was massively out of position for the second goal and was found losing the ball too often in the middle of the pitch, leaving huge spaces behind.
But this is clearly tactical from Iraola, and Araujo made up for his error with a crucial equaliser right before the break.
Trey Nyoni - 7/10
The 19-year-old was everywhere during this game, whether it was covering as a centre back when others went forward, or making line-breaking sprints forward himself; he was a solid contributor to this victory.
Alexis Mac Allister - 8/10
He started the game off the pace, like a lot of the Liverpool players, but scored two crucial goals that helped turn a 2-0 deficit into a 4-3 win.
Cody Gakpo - 6.5/10
A quiet game from Gakpo, massively outshone by his young counterpart on the opposite flank, but he has just returned from injury, and it was good to see him get a full 90 minutes.
Ryan Gravenberch - 7/10
Struggled in the more advanced role he would play for most of the game. Playing at right-back for the second half, he was top-tier and nullified any threat posed down his side.
Rio Ngumoha - 9/10
Fantastic, marvellous, and incredible are just a few of the words that could be used to describe Rio Ngumoha's performance in this game.
Even when his side was struggling to settle into the game, he was the one trying to make something happen.
His hard work would eventually pay off, getting two assists, deservedly Player of The Match.
Lewis Koumas - 6.5/10
Was marked very well by the Villarreal defence, and due to their deep line, he didn't often find himself with the ability to run in behind.
Substitutes:
Florian Wirtz - 7.5/10
A gamechanger when he came on at half-time, he was the missing link that allowed the Reds to go and turn this game around.
Tidy passing, creating space for others and capped it off with a goal of his own. A strong 45 minutes for the German.
Alexander Isak - 5.5/10
Was very isolated in the game, and came on when the score was 4-2, so the need for his clinical goalscoring touch was less.
Joe Gomez - 5.5/10
Could be blamed slightly for the third goal that the away side scored, due to poor positional play; however, he came on and did okay.
Bradley Barcola - 6/10
There were so many times that the likes of Florian Wirtz would try to spin a ball in behind to allow the electric pace of Barcola to work his magic, but Villarreal prevented passes from reaching the Frenchman.
James McConnell - 5/10
Came on for the last 10 minutes or so and helped see the game out.
Author's Verdict - Player of The Match - Rio Ngumoha
There is a very good reason why many Liverpool fans call Rio Ngumoha "starboy", and the Champions League has now found out why.
A superb display from the 18-year-old, from minute one until he was substituted, he was the biggest threat on the pitch.
Despite Villarreal putting three or four players on the English winger, he still found a way through, creating several chances and getting two assists.
The fact that he is so young, with Andoni Iraola highlighting that he is becoming a more complete player. The sky really is the limit for this young man.
