Slot After Liverpool's Elimination: "We Got Far Less Than We Deserved and Should Have Won Against Paris Saint-Germain"
Arne Slot, Liverpool's manager, expressed his disappointment after his team's elimination from the UEFA Champions League following a 2-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the second leg of the quarter-finals.
Following the match, Slot stated that his team delivered a strong performance, emphasizing their capability to compete with Europe's top clubs. He said: "We showed that we are capable of competing with European champions."
The Dutch coach added that his team had made clear progress compared to their previous encounter, highlighting the significant role played by the fans in supporting the players throughout the match: "We made great progress compared to last week; our fans kept pushing us forward."
Despite the positive performance, Slot lamented the team's failure to capitalize on the opportunities created, considering it one of the main reasons for their exit: "Unfortunately, this is one of many examples this season where we didn't capitalize on our chances."
Comparing the two legs, the Liverpool manager explained that his team did not get what they deserved in either match, stating: "I think last week we got far more than we deserved by only losing 2-0, but today we got far less than we deserved, and we should have won."
Slot concluded his remarks on an optimistic note, asserting that the team's future remains promising despite the elimination, given the performance displayed by the players against one of Europe's strongest teams.
