ESPN FC’s Steve Nicol and Alejandro Moreno recap a breathless match at Anfield and delve in what went wrong for Jurgen Klopp’s team. Nicol places the blame directly at the feet of Liverpool goalkeeper Adrian and exclaims “that’s why you spend millions on a keeper!”

I am a keeper myself so I feel sorry for Adrian but you gotta say that the defence + attack was no good
If Klopp expected Athletico Madrid to come out and attack he is the dumbest manager I know…. liverpool just bash in crosses….deigo Simeone knew it and set up deep and they couldn't take their chances…and they hit on the break… Barcelona and real Madrid deal with it every year….you can deal with it once
Who is this fella crying
Lol as arrogant as they are
Liverpool SUCKS???
Adrian was walking alone
So many fake Liverpool fans giving out abuses to Adrian, what happened to YNWA , you Muppets,Even Alisson makes mistakes but he never gets abused ,vile bastards, Liverpool FC is bigger than you bastards , thank god y'all are not in charge at LFC,no wonder everyone hates us , it's because of these plastic LFC fans
disrespecting oblak
Soo it looks like they depend in allison one person
Alisson plays, Liverpool goes thru, end of story.
He had a bad day leave him alone we will come back soon
Steven gerrard cost them the premier league with his slip
They played badly that's why they were out
You know what looking back he was right they did lose because of a goalkeeper..Because Oblak was top class and did what you need to do to beat Liverpool. All these salty af pundits make me laugh
He is Frustrated but am happy hhh
And they said mbappe will sign for them
Karuis brother
Liverpool had the first leg also. Cant always count on anfield. They lost both games. When llorente picked the ball up for the first goal he still had a way to go. What happened to defence and van dijk.
Oh now is a goalkeeper. Please they were to arrogant and deserve to lose.
Stats: Liverpool put 23 shots off target
Steve: It was all Adrian's fault even tho we missed loads of chances in attack
These Brits and their cheap excuses. Whenever they are defeated, the person in charge is due to some unforeseen event, it is never because the rival does not drop his arms and fight until the end. If we meet again, Klopp will give us the script of how we should play against them. Well, there will always be the consolation that they will never cry alone.
prophetic, last game before the pandemic last game commented by Michael Robinson before his death historical comeback in his field, it was not madrid nor Liverpool were two nations sportingly facing each other and winning who had more heart. not like when we shared america ??? I have incredible friends in Bristol, England is a special country, but I recommend that you leave there soon, the decline of England begins, come to Spain. a hug

Ty
Will somebody tell that idiot Steve Nicol that 2-0 IS NOT ENOUGHH!!! It's too risky when Atléti just need one goal to go through.
You need to be 4-0 ahead when you're defending a clean sheet at home with a dodgy goalkeeper, knowing one away goal is gonna put you in serious trouble. European Football 101, idiots.
