Arne Slot admitted that his side did everything right in their Champions League last 16 second-leg tie with Paris Saint-Germain, but bemoaned their inability to put the ball in the back of the net. Liverpool entered the match with a slender one-goal advantage, but could not grab another at Anfield and eventually went out on penalties.
Ousmane Dembele got the only goal of the second leg by finishing from close range, but after 120 minutes at home, Liverpool could not find a way past Gianluigi Donnarumma. The Italian goalkeeper, who shone in another shoot-out on English soil, saved spot-kicks from Darwin Nunez and Curtis Jones to send the visitors into raptures, having knocked out another favourite to win the competition.
“Incredible performance," Slot reflected. "Especially if you compare it with last week. The first 25 minutes we were all over them, created chance after chance but then we went 1-0 down.
“It feels a bit unfair to go out in this round already if you were top of the table and face a team like PSG. Last week we had a bit of luck, we didn't have it today.”
