Liverpool 1-0 Real Madrid Champions League (4) | Anfield November 4, 2025 Goals Mac Allister 61′ (assist: Szoboszlai) Slot makes the obvious change Arne Slot opted against ripping up a winning format as he made just one change from the 2-0 victory over Aston Villa at the weekend.

Conor Bradley‘s running battle with Vinicius Jr. – played out on the touchline near Real Madrid‘s bench – was a key feature of the first half, with the right-back inarguably winning it. Courtois was, as he was in the Champions League final in Paris, the player who kept Real in the game, pulling off a string of impressive saves to ensure half-time arrived at 0-0.
