PSG vs Liverpool Player Ratings: Reds Suffer 2-0 Defeat in Paris

Giorgi Mamardashvili looking disappointed after conceding a goal against PSG

Liverpool played well defensively vs PSG as several players earned high ratings in the back, but the Reds had no teeth coming forward, getting zero shots on goal in a 2-0 loss to PSG.

  • Mamardashvili (6/10) Some word-class stops but allowed PSG to cut around him for a second goal. 
  • Gomez (7/10) Strong in defense against a PSG side that dominated possession.
  • Szoboszlai (6/10) Beautiful cross that set up a chance in the first half
  • Gravenberch (5/10) Name was not called much
  • Van Dijk (5/10) Not a bad game, but was out of position a few times
  • Kerkez (6(/10) Did some good work on the wing, but did not see enough of the ball 
  • Konate (6/10) Good game, but was let off the hook when the potential penalty was whipped away 
  • Mac Allister (6/10): As with a lot of the team, had a few good moments but not enough.
  • Wirtz (7/10): Strong passes into attacking areas, but the Reds could not get a clear shot at goal
  • Frimpong (7/10): Good in defense, but could not use his speed going forward 
  • Ekitike (5/10): Ineffective up top because he had to do so much defending

The Substitutes

  • Gakpo (6/10): Part of a quadruple change to push for a late goal that didn’t pan out.
  • Isak (6/10): It was just good to see him back on the pitch
  • Robertson (6/10): Helped Liverpool stay in the tie by not giving up a third goal
  • Jones (5/10): No Impact
  • Nyoni (5/10) Stoppage-time sub

Man of the Match

  • Wirtz

The Manager

  • Arne Slot (6/10): His decision not to play Salah makes sense now, considering how much defending Frimpong had to do, but he needed to bring the Egyptian King on late to threaten the goal and did not do it
