Slot: Liverpool lucky to lose only 2-0 to PSG

Liverpool manager Arne Slot admits his team were lucky to only lose 2-0 to PSG in the Champions League first leg.

Arne Slot says Liverpool were 'lucky to only lose 2-0' after a lacklustre performance in Paris where they were outplayed by PSG. The Reds used a defensive back five but still went 2-0 down to goals from Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Despite the defeat, Slot praised goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili for making crucial saves that kept the scoreline manageable. 'They had more chances than the only goals they scored,' the Liverpool boss said, adding that he's hopeful about overturning the deficit at Anfield next week.
