Slot: Liverpool Lucky to Only Lose 2-0 to PSG

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

Arne Slot criticized Liverpool's insipid display in Paris, saying they were 'lucky to only lose 2-0' against PSG. The Reds employed a defensive back five but were outplayed by the reigning champions, who took the lead through a deflected shot from Desire Doue before Khvicha Kvaratskhelia doubled the advantage.

Despite the defeat, Slot praised goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili for making crucial saves that kept the score manageable, comparing his performance to Bayern Munich's Manuel Neuer. Liverpool now faces the daunting task of overturning the deficit in next week's second leg at Anfield, where Slot hopes for a different outcome.
