PSG arrive at Anfield with two-goal lead as Liverpool face a fight for survival in Champions League quarter-final[Updated]

Tuesday, 14 April 2026, 06:06 · 1 min read

Paris Saint-Germain travel to Anfield on Tuesday night holding a commanding 2–0 advantage from the first leg, as they seek to secure a place in the Champions League semi-finals against a Liverpool side that must produce one of the great European comeback nights to stay in the competition.

Since eliminating Chelsea 8–2 on aggregate in the round of sixteen, PSG have looked sharp and purposeful, and are now widely regarded as co-favourites for the title alongside Bayern Munich — two clubs who could yet meet in the last four. Manager Luis Enrique, who has rebuilt the Parisian project around collective pressing and fluid passing rather than individual stars, struck a cautious tone ahead of the second leg.

PSG secured a 2–0 victory at Anfield on Tuesday — 4–0 on aggregate — as Ousmane Dembélé scored both goals, latching onto a Bradley Barcola pass in the 72nd minute before slotting home a second from Barcola's cross in stoppage time. Liverpool, who created the greater number of chances overall and were roared on by a rain-soaked Anfield crowd, saw a second-half penalty overturned by VAR after Willian Pacho's challenge on Alexis Mac Allister. The result compounded a difficult season for Arne Slot's side, who have now been eliminated from every cup competition and must fight to secure a fifth-place Premier League finish to guarantee Champions League football next year. A first-half injury to forward Hugo Ekitike, who was carried off pointing to his Achilles tendon after going down unchallenged, cast a further shadow over the evening for the hosts.
