Porto manager Sergio Conceicao has admitted that his side attempted to restrict Liverpool's freedom in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie, nullifying the threats posed by Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane specifically.
The plan worked to a degree, with the Reds only winning 2-0 on the night, thanks to goals from Naby Keita and Roberto Firmino.
Jurgen Klopp's men are overwhelming favourites to qualify after controlling much of the play at Anfield, with Conceicao revealing after the game that he made tactical tweaks designed to prevent Liverpool's dangerous wingers from cutting in on their stronger feet.
