Liverpool's Champions League Dreams Shattered by Dembele's Double
Liverpool's hopes of a Champions League comeback were dashed as Ousmane Dembele's late double secured a 2-0 win for Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield, sealing a 4-0 aggregate victory for the French side. Despite a spirited performance from Arne Slot's team, PSG's precision proved to be the difference. The hosts had their chances, with Virgil van Dijk denied by Marquinhos and Alexis Mac Allister seeing a penalty award overturned by the referee after a VAR review. Liverpool's season has now been confirmed as trophyless, with their focus shifting to securing a top-five finish in the Premier League to ensure Champions League qualification. The match was also marred by an injury to Hugo Ekitike, who was forced off in the first half, with manager Arne Slot describing the situation as 'not looking good.'
