PSG inflict another defeat on Liverpool with first-leg victory in Paris

At least Liverpool fans who witnessed the four-goal mauling at Manchester City on Saturday were able to escape after an hour.

Those who paid hundreds of pounds to travel to Paris and watch an abject Champions League performance devoid of ambition were not so lucky.

Half an hour after the referee blew the full-time whistle to confirm Paris St-Germain's 2-0 win - and Liverpool's 16th defeat of the season - the away fans were still inside the ground as French police held them back in order to clear the home supporters.

"That was our champions against their champions. Our champions were nowhere near," said former England goalkeeper Paul Robinson, who was inside Parc des Princes for BBC Radio 5 Live.
