Slot admits team ‘were in survival mode’ during first leg
‘Football has shown many times everything is possible’
Arne Slot admitted Liverpool were in survival mode against Paris Saint-Germain and will need the backing of Anfield to raise their level against the European champions in next week’s Champions League quarter-final second leg.
Liverpool were fortunate to escape with a 2-0 defeat at Parc des Princes where Ousmane Dembélé, who missed a crucial chance for Barcelona in their 2019 semi-final against Jürgen Klopp’s eventual champions, squandered several opportunities for Luis Enrique’s star-studded side.
Goals from Désiré Doué and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia have put PSG in command of the tie but Slot insisted Liverpool retain hope of reaching the semi-finals but will require a different approach on home soil to produce another Anfield comeback.
