“The gold medal will be ours” – Liverpool player sends Reds rallying cry and knows what needs to happen

Liverpool star Dominik Szoboszlai has insisted the Reds to be perfect between now and the end of the season to ensure they are Premier League champions.
The midfielder has been speaking to Blikk in Hungary about the title race, which promises to be one of the tightest in Premier League history.
Liverpool currently lead the way after the weekend’s fixtures, sitting top of the table with 67 points from 29 games so far.
That puts them two points ahead of Arsenal in second and three ahead of Manchester City in third after they drew with each other at the Etihad on Sunday.
The Reds had not expected to find themselves in this position this year after a disappointing campaign last year that saw them finish fifth and 22 points behind eventual winners Manchester City.
Instead, they have bounced back from that poor showing and have the extra motivation of being determined to make Jurgen Klopp’s final season at Anfield a special one.
The reality, though, is that they face arguably the hardest remaining fixtures of the three challengers and the Liverpool man admits they need to be perfect to ensure the title is theirs.
“It wasn’t an ideal start, but we’ve come back from behind a few times this season and turned it around,” he said after the win over Brighton.
“That was the scenario again and although it wasn’t easy, in the end we just collected the three points. If we don’t make any mistakes from now on, we’ll win the gold medal, so it’s up to us to decide whether we can go for the perfect run.
“We need to start each of the remaining nine rounds as if it were our last – and after Arsenal’s loss on Sunday, we no longer have to aim to score 16 goals in one of the nine games.”

Arne Slot showed his true colors with response to Darwin Nunez Liverpool penalty miss
Liverpool were beaten by Paris Saint-Germain on penalties in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, with Darwin Nunez missing the decisive spot-kick for the hosts.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot was quick to comfort Darwin Nunez following his penalty miss in the Champions League loss to Paris Saint-Germain.
The visitors secured a 1-0 victory over the course of regular time, thanks to Ousmane Dembele’s goal in the first half, with no further goals scored in extra time. This led to a penalty shootout, with PSG leading 2-1 when Nunez took his turn. The Uruguayan forward aimed his shot to Gianluigi Donnarumma’s left, but the Italian goalkeeper managed to deflect it with both hands in what was a heavily lauded performance. His face said it all.
Before the next penalty was even taken, Nunez seemed visibly upset as he returned to the halfway line. Curtis Jones also had his attempt saved, before Desire Doue extended PSG’s lead to an insurmountable 4-1.
As the PSG players and their traveling supporters erupted in celebration, Nunez looked heartbroken. However, Slot was right there, wrapping an arm around the striker and seemingly offering words of encouragement. It was a bold decision from Slot to place the under-fire Nunez second in the shootout order.
So it was no surprise to see the Liverpool boss immediately comfort the striker after his miss. Captain Virgil van Dijk was another who supported Nunez and Jones after the Champions League defeat.
Speaking to Amazon Prime, he said: “It was a very intense great game of football, I think to be part of it as well. It was totally there for Liverpool and what we showed in Paris and unfortunately we’re out on penalties and that is the reality.
“I think in the first half we created dangerous moments and they have the quality as well, and then it comes down to penalties. It’s part of football, I said to the guys, obviously, you can be disappointed because we’re out of the competition, but chin up and get ready for the next challenge, a beautiful one on the weekend.”
On the Reds performance, Van Dijk added: “I think we were pretty good today as well, and you want to go as far as possible, but we knew when we drew PSG it was going to be very difficult. We saw in Paris when we struggled but we won, and today we saw a very good Liverpool side but we’re out of the competition.
“Today from the first second and then extra time, when fatigue kicks in for both sides, it becomes more open but especially regular time, we showed a very good game. We can speak about the game for ages but we’re out of the competition, that is the reality.”

PSG boss Luis Enrique gives honest verdict on Anfield atmosphere after knocking Liverpool out of Champions League

Liverpool were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League after PSG bested the Reds in a penalty shootout.
The Merseyside giants were unable to make the most of the Anfield atmosphere as PSG rallied together to push Liverpool to penalties before Gianluigi Donnarumma denied Darwin Nunez and Curtis Jones from the spot to send the French side through to the quarter-finals.
With Luis Diaz criticised for his performance for Liverpool coupled with Trent Alexander-Arnold coming off injured, it was a night to forget for the Reds, who head into Sunday’s League Cup final against Newcastle United at a low point.
And PSG manager Luis Enrique has now given his verdict on Liverpool’s performance and the Champions League Anfield atmosphere.
Luis Enrique praises ‘special’ Anfield and Liverpool after PSG win
Speaking to Amazon Prime after the full-time whistle, the former FC Barcelona manager shared his appreciation of Liverpool’s performance and noted that Arne Slot’s side also deserved to go through to the quarter-finals.
As well as praising Liverpool, Enrique revealed his pleasure at watching his PSG side win at Anfield, a stadium that the former Spain head coach lauded as ‘special’ given the European nights that have happened here in recent years.
Enrique said when asked about Liverpool and PSG’s performance at Anfield tonight: “I think both of the teams deserved to go to the next phase. We played better than them in Paris, they played better than us I think here.
“But I think my team showed – in a special place, a special stadium – great personality, great character. We tried to play our best but it was really difficult because they are so intense and the atmosphere was great.”
Liverpool will need to turn Anfield into a bigger weapon next season
Anfield is rightfully regarded as one of the hardest stadiums for any away side to travel to in Europe, with Jurgen Klopp turning the legendary Liverpool stadium into a real fortress during his tenure on Merseyside.
And whilst Slot has maintained that reputation, Liverpool have been caught out on a few occasions this season at Anfield, with the Reds’ one loss in the Premier League coming at home against Nottingham Forest.
With Liverpool now being eliminated from the Champions League at Anfield, Slot will be wise to try and transform the staidum into an even bigger weapon next season, something that could be done through supporters creating a hostile environment.

What Mo Salah did instantly after penalty defeat will break every Liverpool fan’s heart
Mo Salah looked heartbroken after Desire Doue’s penalty confirmed Liverpool’s exit from the Champions League.
The Merseysiders were dumped out of the competition in the round of 16 after PSG punished spot-kicks Gianluigi Donnarumma saved from Curtis Jones and Darwin Nunez.
The French champions had taken the game to extra-time and penalties after Ousmane Dembele’s first-half goal cancelled out Harvey Elliott’s winner in Paris in the first leg.
Liverpool are set to next take on Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley on Sunday.
Mo Salah in tears after penalty heartbreak
Boy, oh boy, was that hard to take.
The sight of Salah in tears after the final penalty certainly won’t be making Liverpool fans at home and abroad feel any better, either.
Fabrizio Romano shared images on X (formerly Twitter), courtesy of TNT Sports coverage of our Champions League clash, of the 32-year-old’s post-match reaction as the players went over to applaud our home support.
What an absolute shame if this is indeed the right winger’s final European campaign with the club ahead of his contract expiring at the end of the campaign.
On the flip side of the coin, it’s looking likely that he’ll, at the very least, walk away with one major piece of silverware come the end of May.

PSG nullified Salah at Anfield
Credit where credit is due to Luis Enrique’s PSG who looked a force capable of challenging for the Champions League this term.
The Egyptian King was on point creatively throughout our European encounter, supplying two key passes (courtesy of Sofascore) as Liverpool struggled to find a breakthrough on home turf.
It was just a shame we couldn’t see our No.11 impose himself on the tie with another goal to add to his burgeoning tally for the 2024/25 season (32 goals in 42 appearances across all competitions).
→ 1 shot on target
→ 2 shots off target
→ 1 shot blocked

Darwin Nunez’s face sums up Liverpool torment after missed penalty against PSG
Liverpool has been dumped out of the Champions League after losing to Paris Saint-Germain in a penalty shootout which saw Darwin Nunez and Curtis Jones’ spot kicks saved by Gianluigi Donnarumma.
Liverpool has been dumped out of the Champions League by Paris Saint-Germain after losing to Luis Enrique’s side on penalties.
After somehow coming away from the first leg in the French capital with a 1-0 lead on aggregate following Harvey Elliott’s late winner and Alisson’s heroics in net, Liverpool found themselves 1-0 down in the return leg after just 12 minutes at Anfield.
PSG forward Ousmane Dembele managed to bundle the ball home past Alisson in the Liverpool net following a mix-up at the back to give Luis Enrique’s side the lead. However, despite the first-half goal, PSG were unable to find a winner, while Liverpool failed to create any real opportunities to take control of the tie.
In the end, it came down to a penalty shootout, with Mohamed Salah and Vitinha both scoring for their respective sides with the opening two spot kicks. However, while Gonçalo Ramos dispatched his penalty, Darwin Nunez had his saved by Gianluigi Donnarumma.
The Uruguayan forward looked inconsolable walking back to his teammates who tried to comfort the Liverpool striker following his miss. Dembele then stepped up to fire home his penalty, before Donnarumma again saved a spot kick, this time from Curtis Jones.
And after Jones’ miss, Desire Doue scored from the spot to dump Liverpool out of the Champions League.

Liverpool Fans think Arne Slot made two crucial errors against PSG that cost Liverpool in Champions League clash
Liverpool fans think Arne Slot made two errors in his side’s eventual Champions League last 16 penalty shootout defeat against Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield.
The Reds went into the tie 1-0 up on aggregate after Harvey Elliott’s 87th-minute strike against the run of play in Paris.
But they found themselves level again on 12 minutes of the second leg after Ousmane Dembele capitalised on a defensive error from Ibrahima Konate.
Alisson, who was superb for Liverpool in the first leg, was called into action on a number of occasions again at Anfield, while opposite number Gianluigi Donnarumma also pulled off a series of important saves.
Liverpool fans think Arne Slot made two errors
The Italian got a hand to Luis Diaz’s goalbound header in normal time in perhaps the save of the match.
But fans feel that Diaz was one of two selection errors that Slot got wrong on the night at Anfield.
One wrote: “Why Slot started Diaz and Jota is beyond me.”
A second said: “Slot starting Diaz and Jota every game when he doesn’t have to.”
A third claimed: “Chiesa not getting minutes here is strange.”
Liverpool went on to lose the penalty shootout, with Darwin Nunez and Curtis Jones both missing from the spot.
PSG, meanwhile, scored all four of their penalties with aplomb. Desire Doue scored the winning penalty for Luis Enrique’s side, who were good value for their overall victory that sees them progress to the quarter-finals.
Slot’s side will now have to focus on the Premier League and this month’s Carabao Cup final.
The Reds take on Newcastle at Wembley for the opportunity to lift silverware for the first time this season. They are also 15 points clear of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table.
PSG, meanwhile, are into the quarter-finals of the competition for the second time in two seasons, having got to the semi-final last year before losing to Borussia Dortmund.

I’m fuming with PSG arrogance – it happened to me and I know what Liverpool will be talking about

John Aldridge has his say on Paris Saint-Germain’s approach to the Champions League last-16 second leg against Liverpool.
When I heard the comments of the PSG players and manager after the first leg, the arrogance of them struck me. You’re looking at a club that has never won a big trophy, so to come out and say what they did post-match…
They should have won, but they didn’t. We sucker-punched them. And they have been so disrespectful to us and to Anfield.
And I’m hoping the fans respond on Wednesday night and the players win their personal battles. We will play better, we will pass it better. And if we win our personal battles, we’ll win the game because we’re a better team than them.
What they’ve said is like a red rag to a bull. I’m looking forward to tomorrow, obviously, but if I was a player or the manager, I’d be fuming. I’d want to go out and really show them on Wednesday night.
They’ve given Arne Slot a free team talk. I did it at Tranmere when we played Bolton in the semi-finals of the League Cup. It was massive for us to get to Wembley, little Tranmere Rovers.
We went to Bolton, won 1-0 and played very well I thought. But we got some derogatory comments from their camp. I got the Bolton Evening News. It’s old-school but I got Les Parry to put them around the dressing room.
I didn’t have a team talk. I just said that’s what he said, that’s what he said, that’s what he said. There you go, it’s up to you. In the first 20 minutes, we were 2-0 up. Game over. We battered them.
The players will be talking about what PSG players have said in the dressing room. Virgil’s the one who will relay it to them.
So win your battles, don’t let them bully you, don’t let them get the best of you. There are three or four really crucial combats in this game. We have to win our battles. Especially in midfield.
We can’t be any worse than last week. That’s as bad as I’ve seen and I was gobsmacked we won 1-0. Imagine if we play well!
Last few games, we’ve not been at it but if we play like we did against Man City or Real Madrid, we’ll beat them. They are a good team but we made them look better than they are.
They have some brilliant players. The crowd will do its part, I’m pretty sure about that. And PSG won’t know what’s hit them.
What’s up, Mo?
I have been very critical of Mo in the last two games. If he wants to win the Ballon d’Or, which I’d love him to go, he can’t play like he did last Wednesday. It was just nothing.
He didn’t win one challenge, he was really poor, and on Saturday again. But he wasn’t the only one last Wednesday night. We were pretty horrendous on that day as well.
The alarming thing for me was the pass completion was 73% or something. We’re normally 90% plus. That’s not good enough. That’s got to be 85% to 90% on Wednesday.
But worse than that was the battles. We won 34% of our battles. That tells you we were out-battled and bullied all over the park.
But the one reason Mo Salah is on that teamsheet every single game is because he scores goals, he creates. He might not play well. For me on Saturday, he struggled like hell but he got the two penalties.
His stats are there so you have to play. Gakpo plays more on the left than Diaz because look at his stats. Strikers, you live and breathe and earn your money by scoring goals.
If you want to get your name on the teamsheet, you have to score goals. It’s as simple as that. I know the game has changed and it’s rotated more. But Mo Salah isn’t rotated.
If you have a forward like Haaland, he plays every game. Salah plays every game. Jota is rusty at the moment because he’s been in and out and had a couple of bad injuries at the wrong time.
I’d love to see Nunez go on and score some vital goals for us before the end of the season, but he has to play one million percent, and go through a brick wall. If he doesn’t do that, he gives us nothing.
Elliott future unclear.
I think the problem Harvey has got is where do you play him? For me, he’s not a right winger. He’s got to be involved.
When he plays right wing, he doesn’t get the ball enough. He’s one of those players who you’ve got to give him the ball. He’s a really good footballer. Talented lad, young lad with a lot of experience for his age.
He can actually play in the midfield three that we’ve got, though he might need to work on his defensive responsibilities a little bit. But going forward, his link-up play with Mo and Trent is brilliant.
He gives you something different as an impact player. He’s got to be more than that. I really like him but we don’t know what’s going to go on in pre-season because of the lack of game-time he’s had but he is a massive Liverpool fan. It will be interesting to see.
This week, John Aldridge’s weekly ECHO column was taken from his special appearance on the Blood Red podcast.
