Arne Slot and Liverpool surprised more than one by adopting an ultra defensive style against Paris Saint-Germain. But the Batavian and his men succeeded in the perfect heist by winning 1-0 in the Parc des Princes after being dominated the whole meeting. Questioned by TNT SPORTSSlot was delighted, but lucid. “There have been many similarities today with our match against Manchester City, where we have faced a team that has a very good possession of a ball and who have great wingers who dominate the situations of one against one. I had said before the match that we would not dominate possession of the ball here. The only thing I can blame my players is that four, five, six times we tried to play through them and it was completely open and the last touch should be better. Perhaps it was due to the fatigue of having defended so much. It is sometimes difficult after having defended so much “he said, before continuing.
“If you look at the Champions League statistics, you will see that they were number one (in terms of statistics) and that they have already played against Atlético de Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Arsenal. Having the best statistics after facing teams of this quality says a lot. For us, the only way to get there, with their supporters was to defend as we did. Now we hope that our supporters in Anfield will help us a lot. We will need Anfield ”he said, before having a word for his evening hero, Alisson Becker. “I had some very good players as a coach, but never the best goalkeeper in the world so far. He showed that he was the best in the world today. Leaving with a victory here was probably a little more than what we deserved. »»
