This time, the roles were reversed. Liverpool entered the game determined to qualify and win. Egyptian Mo Salah had missed two important chances by the 5th minute, and Paris paid for it with the same coin. In the first opportunity, Ousmane Dembele, a phenomenal footballer who handles the ball perfectly with both feet, in a mix-up that occurred in Alisson Becker's area, won the ball, and gave the Parisian team a lead in the 12th minute (equalizing the score of the first match).

The guests then dominated the field for a 10-minute period. They twice touched the second goal again with Dembele. But he opened the control in front of Alisson, while a little later the shot of the Georgian winger Kvaratskhelia while going to the window of the Liverpool goal, the Dutchman Ryan Gravenberch  stretched his leg and sent it for a corner...

Liverpool slowly, slowly found its good self again. He pressed hard, but failed to score the equalizer until the end of the half...

Then, as time passed, Liverpool's players were running out of strength. While Luis Enrique's players showed that they wanted to endure the game going into extra time. Nothing changed there and the game went into extra time and since nothing changed, into penalties.

The fact is that this young Paris Saint-Germain of Luis Enrique is possessed of nerve, stubbornness, will and has footballers who do not give up. So he has every right to believe that he can even reach Munich this year in May...
