Liverpool gave up her Perfect Champions League record on Wednesday when they were beaten 3-2 by PSV Eindhoven, but nevertheless came to an end in the league phase table when Barcelona did not win.
Liverpool’s much -changed starting line -up made an impressive start in the Netherlands in the knowledge that they had already qualified for the last 16. The former PSV star Cody Gakpo shot her in the 28th minute before the penalty point.
Johan Bakayoko defeated two defenders of Liverpool with a clever chop before he shot beyond Caoimhin Kelleher seven minutes later, but Harvey Elliott put the Reds a second time after converting Federico Chiesa up close after the setback of Federico Chiesa.
However, hell broke in the dying embers of the first half when PSV scored twice in six minutes to go in front of him. Ismael Saibari’s strong finish almost posted by Ricardo Pepis, although the American international’s touch was minimal.
The drama of the first half was not replicated after the break when Liverpool unsuccessfully pushed for a balance. The replacement Amara Nallo in the 87th minute sent in his senior debut for the club.
However, the defeat was not very important for the red, since Barcelona’s 2-2 draw against Atalanta meant that they recorded the top position in the last league phase ranking.
