Outstanding performance
Paris Saint Germain•AttackerParis Saint-Germain completed a comprehensive 4-0 aggregate victory over Liverpool at Anfield, with Ousmane Dembélé's clinical double sealing a 2-0 second-leg triumph. Despite Liverpool's territorial dominance - they controlled 66% of the match and registered 21 shots to PSG's 12 - the French side's ruthless efficiency in front of goal proved decisive. Liverpool's early injury to Mohamed Salah in the 31st minute disrupted their rhythm, and despite creating numerous chances through their 63 dangerous attacks, they couldn't find the clinical edge needed to mount a comeback. PSG's counter-attacking approach, marshalled expertly by their defensive structure, allowed them to absorb Liverpool's pressure before Dembélé struck twice in the final 20 minutes to crush any hopes of a famous Anfield comeback.
