    To be fair I think Liverpool played excellent and just couldn't put the ball away - not many teams give Barcelona such a hard time in the Nou Camp. But as someone said, the winner is the team with the most goals, not most efforts or style.

    I only saw most of the 2nd half...Liverpool controlled it, so was surprised to see later that they had lost 3-0. A shame as, although not totally out of it, it has probably made the 2nd leg less interesting. One goal for Barcelona and Liverpool will have a mountain to climb.

    If Liverpool score in the first 20-30 minutes of the home game, they have a chance.

    Yep agree - no matter how much we want them to win as many trophies as us this year, they did play some great football yesterday

    This isn’t a great Barca side, either. It just has a great player.

    The BT Sport Football commentary team were laying into Vidal early on last night.

    Why Sassoon?

    Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble and Grubb.

    Wrexham actually have a substitute called Dibble - just so you know

    Matip has made him look better all season, just like Jack Stephens did when Van Dijk was at Saints.

    The man is a fraud
