Liverpool exited the Champions League to Paris Saint-Germain again. Arne Slot’s side were denied a penalty midway through the second half after VAR overturned the decision on Willian Pacho’s shove on Alexis Mac Allister.

Virgil van Dijk even hoped that Liverpool could channel the spirit of 2019 and that incredible night against Barcelona in the Champions League’s last four. Four attempts at Matvei Safonov’s goal was their lowest in the first half of a Champions League home game since facing Napoli in November 2022.

This time it was the sight of Ekitike being stretchered off against his one-time employers after landing awkwardly barely half an hour into Tuesday’s contest. Yet Isak’s first start since December’s league phase win at Inter Milan did not inspire confidence that he can fill the void left by Ekitike’s potential absence.
