The first half has been breathless, PSG showing they are a quality team. Every 50/50 ball and there's re 3-4 PSG players around a Liverpool player. Scoring in the first 15 minutes has given PSG energy. Liverpool need to come out hot and heavy for the second half.

Similar to the goal that Liverpool got in the first leg, this time it was them that gave the goal away.
A few instances where you're thinking about something and it doesn't seem so dangerous, and then you end up in your own box and you give a goal away.
HT: Bayer Leverkusen 0-0 Bayern Munich (0-3 agg)
This is just the second time Bayer Leverkusen have failed to register a shot on target in the first half of a European match under Xabi Alonso, with the only previous instance coming in April 2023 v Union Saint-Gilloise (in the Europa League).

Nuno Mendes has been the standout player of the match. Seven out of 10 duels won - most interceptions and most blocks. Mo Salah, so far, has completed two out of his eight dribbles against PSG.

You see Mo Salah score those chances time and time again, but today hasn't been his day so far.
He'll be coming out firing for the second half and wanting to put it right again.

It has been a masterclass from PSG of how to play out from the back and break the press.

The end-to-end nature of this game would really suit Darwin Nunez, I wouldn't be surprised to see him soon into the second half.

Brilliant start from Liverpool. They should have found themselves a couple of goals ahead.
PSG were under pressure, but one break, and they showed the quality they had.
Danger signs from PSG on the break.
Bayer Leverkusen 0-0 Bayern Munich (0-3 agg)
Bayern Munich are 45 minutes away from a place in the quarter-finals, where they would probably play Inter Milan.
Harry Kane had an early good shout for a penalty rejected for the visitors and later brought about a fine save from Lukas Hradecky, while Leverkusen are yet to test back-up Bayern keeper Jonas Urbig.

Jakub Moder's penalty cancels out Marcus Thuram's opener but that two-goal advantage on aggregate leaves Inter Milan in a good position at the end of the first half.

Mo Salah with two glorious opportunities.
Liverpool 0-1 PSG (agg 1-1)
That's that for the opening 45 minutes.
All square at the break. All to play for.

Let’s not panic. It’s still 1-1, but if PSG score, I can’t see us getting back into the game. Come on reds!
Jim, Derby
It's getting a bit embarrassing the ease with which PSG's defence stops every attack. They look a proper team capable of winning the Champions League.

Liverpool 0-1 PSG (agg 1-1)
Dominik Szoboszlai goes down in the area and there are shouts for a penalty but the referee disagrees.
Bayer Leverkusen 0-0 Bayern Munich (0-3 agg)
Bayer Leverkusen have not had a shot on target so far in this game, but they are getting closer as Patrik Schick has just headed into the side netting following a corner.
Liverpool 0-1 PSG (agg 1-1)
Cries of "wheyyyy" from the Anfield supporters as the ball pings off Nuno Mendes and goes out of play.
It's a small win for the home fans, the full-back has been brilliant again.

The rotation from the forward players is exceptional from PSG.
The pace is breathtaking and that's what Liverpool are finding hard to deal with at the moment.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is a fantastic footballer, but in terms of his defensive ability, he struggles against intelligent wingers.

After losing their first European meeting with Paris SG in April 1997 (0-3 in the Cup Winners’ Cup semi-final first leg), Liverpool have only lost one of four against them since, winning three of them.
None of the last 15 French sides to play away from home against an English opponent in Europe have managed to win, with 14 of those ending in defeats (D1). Indeed, the last such victory was by Paris SG in December 2020 against Manchester United (3-1 in the UEFA Champions League).
Liverpool have progressed from each of their last 14 UEFA Champions League knockout stage ties having won the first leg, with Bayer Leverkusen in 2001-02 (quarter-finals) the last side to eliminate them after the Reds had taken an advantage into the second leg (Liverpool won first leg 1-0, lost 2-4 in the second).
Paris SG have managed to progress from two of their previous five UEFA Champions League knockout stage ties after losing the first leg, coming back to beat Borussia Dortmund on aggregate in the 2019-20 last 16 (3-2) and Barcelona in the 2023-24 quarter-finals (6-4).
Liverpool have won all four of their home games in the UEFA Champions League this season. Should they claim another victory here, Arne Slot would become the first manager to win each of his first five home matches in charge of an English side in the competition.
Paris SG have held their opponents to under one expected goal on nine occasions in the UEFA Champions League this season (including in the first leg v Liverpool); the most of any side. Indeed, Liverpool’s two shots in the first meeting (0.27 xG) were their fewest in a knockout stage game in the competition on record (since 2003-04).
Paris SG players combined to complete 19 dribbles in the first leg of this tie; the most by a team in a UEFA Champions League game against Liverpool since Porto in March 2018 (21). Indeed, the two highest game totals by a side in the knockout stages of the competition this term have both been by Paris SG: 20 v Brest (play-off round) and 19 v Liverpool (round of 16).
Paris SG’s Vitinha has completed 474 passes under high-intensity pressure in the UEFA Champions League this season, 100 more than the player with the next-most (Joshua Kimmich, 374). Indeed, 49 of those came against Liverpool last time out; the most in a knockout stage in the competition this term.
Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah has played more games without scoring against Paris SG than against any other opponent in his UEFA Champions League career (3). In the first leg of this tie, Salah failed to attempt a shot in a game for just the second time as a Liverpool player in this competition (previously v Real Madrid in March 2023, which was also in the round of 16).
Liverpool’s Alisson made nine saves in the first leg against Paris SG last week, helping his side to keep a clean sheet in the process. The most saves on record (since 2003-04) by a goalkeeper without conceding over two legs of a UEFA Champions League knockout stage is 12, achieved by Gianluigi Buffon in 2012-13 (12 v Celtic) Hugo Lloris in 2018-19 (12 v Borussia Dortmund).
