Liverpool pulled off a stunning 1-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie at the Parc des Princes. Despite being under immense pressure for most of the match, the Reds managed to snatch a late winner, leaving former defender Jamie Carragher in disbelief.
PSG dominated large portions of the game, creating numerous chances and testing Alisson on several occasions. The Brazilian goalkeeper delivered a heroic performance, making crucial saves to keep his team in the game.
Carragher, reacting to the match on CBS Sports, was astonished by the outcome. He described Liverpool’s victory as one of the biggest robberies in football, acknowledging PSG’s superiority on the night.
Former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock echoed Carragher’s sentiments on BBC Radio 5 Live. He highlighted how crucial Alisson was to Liverpool’s success, emphasizing that top teams need goalkeepers capable of match-winning performances.
Liverpool now shift their focus back to the Premier League, where they face bottom-placed Southampton this weekend. PSG, on the other hand, will look to bounce back when they take on Rennes in Ligue 1, aiming to extend their lead at the top of the table before heading to Anfield for the second leg.
