You had the contingent to conquer Europe, but you played against a Real Madrid-side that had time and again proved their worth in Europe’s biggest competition.

Without further ado, let’s take a look 4 talking points.

Liverpool had a dream start

It was obvious that Liverpool would go on and attack Real Madrid right from the start. But, not even the ardent Liverpool fans would have expected them to attack with this intensity.

Real Madrid were well equipped to face Liverpool’s attack, but still, they floundered. Klopp had directed his side to go on and attack in numbers.

Mane, Salah, Firmino, Arnold and everyone, I mean everyone surged upwards to contribute to Liverpool’s attack and the chaos would have arisen at the Real Madrid defence, had Salah not been withdrawn.
