Incredible shot map shows how badly Liverpool were dominated by PSG as shock stats from improbable win laid bare

Liverpool earned an incredible smash last night and grabbed Paris Saint-Germain in the Parc des Princes.

The men of Arne Slot had their back against the wall for a large part of the hectic game in the French capital.

The Reds only succeeded in two shots in the entire game, compared to PSGs 27.

But crucial was that one of them was the 87th minute winner of Harvey Elliott.

The incredible shot card of the match last night shows how the home team punctuates the goal of Alisson – with 11 of their 27 shots from the box.

Fortunately for the Reds, their Brazilian stop was in fantastic form and made nine brilliant rescues to keep PSG out – the most he has ever made in a Liverpool competition.

The French champions came to fly out of the blocks and will consider themselves particularly bad luck not to continue in the first half.

Not included under their 27 registered shots was the effort that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia curled 20 minutes past Alisson.

The Georgian ended brilliantly, but the Reds were saved by the narrowest of offside.

Liverpool could also have been in a place of slack later in the first 45, when Ibrahima Konate Bradley Barcola brought down as the last defender.

Amazingly enough, the incident was not considered an error and king, which has been connected to both PSG and Real Madrid in recent weeks, breathed a sigh of relief.

The Liverpool subs succeeded in combining their unlikely winner.

In the 87th minute Alisson had to go up the ball to Darwin Nunez.

The Uruguayan, introduced for Diogo Jota at 67 minutes, then bullying Marquinhos in the air.

Nunez then remained calm to find Elliott, who had been introduced barely 40 seconds earlier, in the space that was usually occupied by Mo Salah.

The 21-year-old then made his best impression of the Egyptian king to quietly throw the ball in the bottom corner, making PSG unbelieving.

'It's a bit weird'

After the game, Baas Luis Enrique could hardly hide his frustration.

The annoyed Spaniard told the French Omroepkanaal+: “That is very unfair.

“It is the most complete game we played in the Champions League. They shot once, they scored.

“Their best player was the goalkeeper. It's a bit weird. I am very proud of my team. We were much better than Liverpool.”

PSG midfielder Vitinha promised that his side will destroy their shortage of one goal when they go to Anfield next week.

The 25-year-old said: “We will show the team that we are, we will show our character.

“We will win there. With the game we played, the victory was more than deserved. Like at the start of the season, we had many opportunities, but we couldn't score.”

The two parties will meet again on Merseyside next Tuesday.
