I also didn't expect Liverpool to play like that at their home ground, even until the last attempt at the penalty, Liverpool were really unlucky in the match. Now the Liverpool team only has the opportunity to win the EPL and EFL trophies this season because in the UCL they have been eliminated by PSG and I see that PSG has also started to be better in the UCL competition this season with evidence that was quite clear in yesterday's match.
I was beyond shock to see this side of PSG because since Messi joined the club, team hasn't be able to advance passed knockout stage but it's now better than when he was there and they thought his presence might win them the Champions League but it seems that they are better now since his absence and every season keeps getting better. It shouldn't have been against Liverpool, my mind was off yesterday because I was really rooting for sallah to boost his chance of Balon D'or.
Nevertheless, Real Madrid won the Champions League last season, they won the domestic league and had almost everything, I hope they don't bend the rule for another player because at this stage, Salah deserve his flowers this season after many years of playing in English Premier League and he doesn't cause any drama like other players do have favour. We also have the major league here in Africa that will serve as a reward for what the elite use to rank criteria to win Balon D'or.
Liverpool could not reach the quater finals or semi final,so that may stand as a stumbling block against Salah winning the Ballon d'or.He has really tried his best this season,pushing Liverpool to the point that they are already on the verge of winning the premier league tittle.
And Slot has been very good since he took over from Joghen Klopp who gave Liverpool champions league Titttle.
Perhaps,Slot will concentrate more on winning the Champions league next season once he has been able to secure the premier league tittle this season,but the fear is him losing Salah and Virgill at the end of this season.
Slot possibility of winning both premier league trophy and EFL Cup in his first season as Liverpool manager is a encouraging start of his career, it is unfortunate that slot wanted to win a treble for Liverpool, though got eliminated yesterday in UCL match against still remain a formidable team having top the UCL table of the new format and gave a good account of themselves, I believe getting eliminated via penalty kick showed how the team fought hard to win, however PSG was the better side in their first leg match but lost narrowly and here again defeated Liverpool right at Anfield to qualify for the quarterfinals.
