“I think in the last part of the game, it was more about surviving for us than there was ever a chance that we could score,” Slot said. And if you then are really tight on their wingers, they make deep runs, so it’s not an easy team to play against because they have so many weapons – and Nuno Mendes and Hakimi are two of them.

They have more, but again – I’ve said it multiple times now – I am convinced about the fact that we can show something different in less than a week’s time, because we play Wednesday-Tuesday and have a game in between. That means even less time to recover, less time to prepare, but I am convinced about the fact that we will play a much more similar game in a week’s time as we played last season at home.” There Is Still Hope Even with the 2-0 loss, Slot believes Liverpool can make a push to advance at Anfield.

Our fans do make a big difference for u,s and that’s also needed because I think it was completely clear today that we need our fans more than ever if we have to face this Paris Saint-Germain team.” LFC Globe Verdict I actually like Slot’s answers here.
