13Firmino struck late to sink PSGSubstitute Roberto Firmino drilled home an added-time winner as Liverpool won their opening group game. The home side had squandered a two-goal lead given to them by Daniel Sturridge, on his first start for the Reds in the competition, and James Milner’s penalty inside 36 minutes. Thomas Meunier benefited from a debatable offside decision to pull one back just before half-time and Kylian Mbappe equalised seven minutes from time but Firmino had the final say.

13The underdogs stunned Liverpool in SerbiaA damaging defeat confirmed Liverpool’s worst away run in Europe’s elite club competition in 39 years to make qualifying from Group C more difficult. Two first-half strikes from Milan Pavkov, a 24-year-old scoring his first European goals in only his 11th appearance, were enough to beat the off-colour Reds. Xherdan Shaqiri, of Kosovar-Albanian parentage, was left at home in order to ease local hostilities.

13Mbappe stole the show in ParisDefeat in the French capital – the first time the club had lost all three away matches in the group stage – left Liverpool facing an all-or-nothing final game at home to Napoli. Milner’s penalty on the stroke of half-time pulled back a goal after Juan Bernat and Neymar had put the hosts 2-0 up.

13Alisson made a crucial stop in the closing stages against NapoliA brilliant first-half goal from Salah, and an added-time save from Alisson Becker, saw Liverpool scrape into the knockout stages by the narrowest of margins. Needing to win either 1-0 or by two clear goals, Mane should have added to Salah’s individual effort. Without that cushion they needed Alisson’s late save from Arkadiusz Milik to progress.
Liverpool 0-0 Bayern Munich, February 19
13It was a cagey first leg against BayernA last-16 tie against Bayern Munich was seen as a tough task for Klopp’s side, especially with midfielder Fabinho as a makeshift centre-back for the first leg as Virgil Van Dijk was suspended. The Bundesliga side left Anfield the happier after keeping the free-scoring Reds at bay.

13Keita delivered a man of the match performance against PortoGuinea international Naby Keita enjoyed his best game in a red shirt with his first goal at Anfield. Firmino’s 14th goal in the competition for the club drew him level with Salah and Ian Rush and doubled Liverpool’s lead. The only disappointment on the night was that they did not finish the job as they did last season when they won the first leg 5-0 in Porto.

13Messi reached 600 Barcelona goals with a stunning free-kickA decent performance in the Nou Camp was not rewarded with a result. After former Reds striker Luis Suarez opened the scoring, Klopp’s side more than held their own. However, they were undone by a stroke of misfortune and a touch of brilliance as first Suarez’s shot off the crossbar presented Lionel Messi with an open goal before the Argentina international later whipped in a superb free-kick. Ousmane Dembele missed a simple chance late on to make it 4-0 which proved to be pivotal.

Divock Origi’s early goal initially ramped up the atmosphere before midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum came off the bench at half-time to score twice within three minutes just before the hour. Eleven minutes from time, Trent Alexander-Arnold’s quickly-taken corner took Barcelona by surprise, allowing Origi to sweep home the goal for a 4-3 aggregate win to send the Reds into a second successive final.
