Their defence isn't quick enough, PSG are just too fast up front for them.

Doubt you will see a much worse 45 minutes by this Liverpool team any time soon

Not sure how that wasn't a red for Konate.

If this somehow ends 0-0, Liverpool are going to be delighted. PSG have had enough chances to seal the tie in one go.

If they somehow hold on to this over the return leg, they owe it all to him. PSG should have had the entire tie in the bag and been well on the way to the next round!

2nd Leg will be interesting, Barca beat PSG in Paris 2-3 and then PSG went and absolutely smashed them in Spain.

Compare how Slot takes a painful defeat with his predecessor:

Arne Slot: Liverpool boss says PSG loss was best game he's been involved in

Liverpool boss Arne Slot describes Tuesday's Champions League game with PSG at Anfield as "the best game of football I've been involved in", despite it resulting in the Reds exiting the competition.

Absolutely ridiculous that penalty is ruled out. A law brought in to prohibit players touching the ball nearer the goal is used to rule out a nye on instantaneous and unintentional double hit.

Not really, that has to be the rule and the application of the rule or players would abuse it.

There's obviously a reason for it, but why do the rules not allow for a retake in those (admittedly rare) circumstances? If they'd VAR checked for the keeper for being off his line, just as an example, it would have been wouldn't it? Just curious why this one automatically goes down as a miss.

What, feigning a slip whilst approaching the ball to gain an advantage? Don't think so...

Yeah saw that video as well, and still seems really harsh.
There should at least be a rule to allow them to retake the penalty, especially as he scored the first

PSG look so much better for not having a side of big names/egos

Dembele finally looks the player that Barca spent millions on, Kvaratshkelia sublime, Barcola sublime, Donnarumma great tournament goalie

They'll tank Villa and do believe it is their time to finally win it

Always feel that they did their best to bend the UCL for an El Classico final for years during the Ronaldo/Messi years - they pretty much always conveniently ended up on the opposite sides of the draw (2011 the only exception) and alas one of them would always end up getting knocked out

Feel that is the case this season as well

Allowing players to touch the ball twice would open a can of worms. The rule is fine, the application is fine.

I still hate VAR and would get rid but as with the Wright goal at Wembley this is the correct application of the current rules.

It's the same rule that says you can't dribble it in from a penalty, hit the post and score the rebound without another player touching it and it applies to all set pieces.

It's not a new rule, it's been there for probably longer than I've been alive.
