Unbelievable with Liverpool success defeating PSG on the first leg match of UEFA Champion League knock out round looking the match statistic The Kop only have one shot on target. During 90 minutes, The Kop only controlling 29% ball possession than PSG success dominance the match with 71% ball posession and success created attempt 10 shots of target.
If Liverpool lose this match, we will call that they had a terrible match but in fact they won it and there are sayings like Liverpool shown mentality of a champion. That's football but it's painful for PSG as again they played well against a big club and achieved bad result. Liverpool must avoid losing ball possession like this in a second leg as PSG will learn something from this match and won't repeat their bad shots like this.
Allison Backer become man of the match for Liverpool behind the most important one goal from the super sub Harvey Elliot success scoring goal for Liverpool at the few minutes left before match ended.
More accurately, I can say PSG had some quality shots in the match but those good shots were blocked by an excellent performance of Alisson Becker. The goalkeeper saved Liverpool from a loss and even potentially a big loss, but he made a great distant pass that open a great counter attack for Liverpool and they completed it with a winning goal.
The victory on the first leg most helpful for Liverpool when facing PSG on second leg match next week later, indeed the victory over 0-1 still not secure yet but Liverpool have advantage for second leg match will play at home and have bigger opportunity qualifying to quarter final round with possibility team to face Barcelona.
This will give Liverpool very good advantage and many options for the second leg in Anfield. PSG have their quality and they will not give up but very likely they won't be able to make a comeback and flip an aggregated result eventually. Liverpool vs Barcelona will be a very big pair in quarter finals if they both move next after round of 16.
