Arne Slot says Liverpool were fortunate to only lose 2-0 against PSG in Paris, where they were outplayed by the reigning champions. The Reds boss set up defensively with a back five but couldn't contain PSG, who took the lead through Desire Doue's deflected shot before Khvicha Kvaratskhelia doubled their advantage.
Despite the defeat, Slot praised goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili for crucial saves that kept the scoreline manageable. "We should be lucky only losing 2-0," Slot said, noting PSG had enough chances to score more. The Reds will now look to overturn the deficit at Anfield next week, with Slot referencing a similar situation last season when Liverpool won 1-0 away before a different performance at home.
