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

Arne Slot admits Liverpool were 'lucky to only lose 2-0' after a lacklustre performance against PSG in the Champions League first leg.

Arne Slot says Liverpool were fortunate to only lose 2-0 to PSG in their Champions League first leg, describing the Reds' performance in Paris as 'dull and lacklustre'. Despite the defeat, Slot remains hopeful Liverpool can overturn the deficit at Anfield next week.

The Liverpool boss praised goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili for several crucial saves that prevented a heavier defeat, comparing his performance to Bayern Munich's Manuel Neuer. 'You need performances like that against Paris Saint-Germain,' Slot said after the match.
