PSG were dominant so do not need to change tactics. They can win the game in England if the play the same way. PSG deserved to win they had 27 shots on target. Liverpool had 2 but scored against the run of play.

Liverpool was very lucky to have escaped with this win and what a much more desired win it was, given the way PSG was dominant all game. You almost wouldn’t see Liverpool getting anything out of this match, not even in the statistics. They performed poorly on an over all, much you would accredit to the fact that, PSG was playing from home and are much more experienced than you would say for Liverpool with so much quality on their team. Even with all that, Liverpool somehow found the net and sealed the game in a 0:1 game win.

Alisson Baker had probably the best game of his career yesterday, as fending off 27 shots and not conceding a goal is a huge accomplishment.
In terms of possession PSG also completely dominated and had 71% of the ball possession in the first half, in the second half Liverpool slightly improved the situation, but still the dominance of PSG was absolute, so much so that Salah could not make a single shot on goal, which has not happened for a long time and it is strange that Arne Slot did not replace him earlier.
I guess if Liverpool play the same way in the next game, they can't avoid defeat. Ali

Alisson Baker was the man of the match yesterday. His performance was out of this world yesterday. Every moment i expect a goal he just punched the ball out.
PSG was really unlucky to have played against a good keeper like that. Next leg they have to do better if they want to put the ball at the back of Allison Baker goal post.
Salah yesterday was disappointment because he never got the chance to play better. He made some inaccurate passes which perhaps might have been a goal scoring opportunity. Arne Slot understand this in the second half and took him out of the game.

We must also give credit to Mendes, who played personally on Salah and did not let him turn on the field, constantly pressed and it felt that such guardianship for Salah was a big surprise, because usually Salah manages to get away from defenders and escalate the attacking action. So now Slot has to think what to do in the next match, if Mendes will play, he will also shut Salah out of the game.

Mendes was great, he personally took the attacking spirit out of Salah, I don't think Salah has ever been closely marked before in his life, in fact the PSG defense took the attack away from Liverpool and forced almost everyone of them to defend. Alison did the most stopping every shot like a robot. He really deserved the man of the match with his striking performance.

PSG outplayed Liverpool in the match, it's sad that their whole impressive display was stolen by Allison and Elliot who scored the deciding goal.

When luck is on your side with a little effort, you will come out victoroius despite the challenges. Liverpool didn't deserve to win the match because they didn't play like players that are ready to win PSG. It was just that Allison and Elliott was at the right place at the right time to see Liverpool through from ending the match in a draw. I will be surprised If PSG win the second leg and qualify to the next round.
