What happened?
Liverpool F.C. lost 2-0 to Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals. The sides will meet again at Anfield next Tuesday.
Why it matters for Liverpool F.C.
Gerrard told TNT Sports that Konaté could have put in a stronger performance against Désiré Doué. He added that the defence was completely out of sync.
What comes next?
Gerrard also suggested that goalkeeper Mamardashvili might have been better positioned closer to his goal line. He felt the Georgian stopper was too far off his line, remarking that maybe he should have been a bit deeper.
