Mohamed Salah against Barcelona
It was always going to be tough defeating Barcelona, and Lionel Messi at the Nou Camp, in the first leg of our Champions League semi-finals.
Jurgen Klopp mixed things up with his line-up as Georginio Wijnaldum played in the attack, while Joe Gomez was preferred as the right-back to Trent Alexander-Arnold.
The Reds matched up to their Spanish opponents but it was an old boy, Luis Suarez, who opened the scoring with a great conversion from a cross in the 26th minute.
Liverpool then started to play better in the second half but it was not enough to get a goal back.
The Reds were doing extremely well in the second half and James Milner had a great chance to score, but shot straight at Marc-Andre ter Stegen.
Till the 70th minute, it seemed like we would get a goal but Lionel Messi scored after a shot came off the bar.
It was cruel on the away side and as we tried to press on, Messi scored one of his trademark free-kicks, which was pretty much unstoppable.
Liverpool still had a chance to score with a goal-line clearance and Mohamed Salah hitting the post. Sadio Mane also had a great chance in the first half, but it was just not to be.
The Reds gave it everything in the tie, and we still have the second leg to look forward too.
Reaching the final of the Champions League looks tough now, but several Liverpool supporters were proud of the team’s effort at the Nou Camp.
