The Reds suffered a blow to their hopes of reaching the knockout stages as they lost 2-1 against Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes on Wednesday night.
PSG leapfrogged Jürgen Klopp’s side in the Group C table with the result in France, meaning Liverpool now sit third in the standings on six points.
