'PSG are outwitting Liverpool'published at 21:16 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March
PSG 0-0 Liverpool
Stephen Warnock
Former Liverpool and Aston Villa defender on BBC Radio 5 LiveLiverpool almost need to take a knee here, like a boxer. Take the sting out of this game.
PSG are too quick and strong, they are outwitting Liverpool.

PSG 0-0 Liverpool
A spell of Liverpool possession. Jeers from the home fans but, for the first time, Liverpool's pocket of travelling fans can be heard bursting into song. It's been backs to the wall for the visitors but they are still standing. Just.
Musiala doubles Bayern leadpublished at 21:16 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March
Bayern Munich 2-0 Bayer Leverkusen
This tie is now firmly in the hands of Bayern Munich thanks to a howler from Leverkusen keeper Matej Kovar.
He comes out to claim Joshua Kimmich's cross but he drops it into the path of Jamal Musiala and he taps home from a yard out.

Ally McCoist
Former Rangers striker on TNT SportsWhat an effort that is from Kvicha Kvaratskhelia. I think the majority of people in this stadium thought he was going to put it back across the goalkeeper. Tremendous.

PSG 0-0 Liverpool
Alisson has had some big nights in a Liverpool shirt but he is single-handedly keeping PSG at bay tonight. The Brazilian has been magnificent.
'Magnificent save'published at 21:13 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March
PSG 0-0 Liverpool
Stephen Warnock
Former Liverpool and Aston Villa defender on BBC Radio 5 LiveMagnificent save. Alisson should save it as he only steps across one-yard to save it, but it's a big save.
Arne Slot is in his technical area and he's been in deep discussion with his staff.
Is he going to make some substitutions?
GREAT SAVE!published at 21:13 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March
PSG 0-0 Liverpool
It's on target...and what a save!
Alisson. Again. At full stretch to turn Kvaratskhelia's attempt behind.
More frustration for PSG who just cannot find the back of the net.

PSG 0-0 Liverpool
This is dangerous. Diogo Jota fouls Khvicha Kvaratskhelia about 22 yards out and Kvaratskhelia is standing over the ball. Nervous times for Liverpool.

PSG 0-0 Liverpool
Trent Alexander-Arnold pings it forward for Diogo Jota to chase but Willian Pacho guides it to safety. Nevertheless, encouragement for Liverpool who look like they are about to make a change.
'More intent' from Liverpoolpublished at 21:09 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March
PSG 0-0 Liverpool
Stephen Warnock
Former Liverpool and Aston Villa defender on BBC Radio 5 LiveI think the pressing is different.
Liverpool are going after them with more intent. In the first half it was more passive from Liverpool.
You have to credit PSG. They've been superb when they have the ball.

PSG 0-0 Liverpool
First serious attempt of the second half and rather predictably it comes from the boot of Ousmane Dembele. Not a great finish, mind. High and wide.

Exhausted and extremely stressed watching that first half for Liverpool, but ultimately, delighted to have escaped at 0-0 in that half. If it was a boxing match it would have been stopped by now.

PSG 0-0 Liverpool
A calm start to the second half considering the frantic nature of the first 45 minutes. By the way, Harvey Elliott and Kostas Tsimikas are receiving instructions on the Liverpool bench. Are they going to be introduced soon?
'Leverkusen will be happy at 1-0'published at 21:06 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March
Bayern Munich 1-0 Bayer Leverkusen
Thomas Hitzlsperger
Former Germany midfielder on MOTD: Uefa Champions League
Image source, Getty ImagesBayern dominated the first half and they will be very pleased with their performance and pressing, but they have not created many clear-cut chances so far and have only managed one other effort on target apart from Harry Kane's brilliant goal.
That's credit to Leverkusen, because they have defended well. They have not had many opportunities full-stop, but they will be happy with the score at the moment - especially if they can keep it at 1-0 for the second leg.
You can hear more from Hitzlsperger on MOTD: Uefa Champions League at 22:40 BST on BBC One and the BBC Sport website and app.

Looks like it will be another game where teams don’t take their chances against Liverpool. Then inevitably, Salah goes and grabs a few to win the game.

Watching Vitinha for PSG reminds me of David Silva or a prime Bernardo Silva. A joy to watch.

Match Facts
This will be just the third UEFA Champions League meeting between Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain, with the two sides previously squaring off in the 2018-19 group stage, with the Reds winning 3-2 at home and losing 1-2 away.
Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain will face each other in the knockout stages of a major European competition for the first time since meeting in the semi-final of the Cup Winners’ Cup in 1996-97, with the Parisians progressing to the final following a 3-2 aggregate victory.
Liverpool haven't won any of their last five away games against French sides in Europe (D2 L3), with their last such victory coming at Marseille in September 2008 (2-1 in the UEFA Champions League).
Liverpool manager Arne Slot is unbeaten against French opposition in major European competition, winning two of his three matches and drawing the other. Indeed, the most recent of those was a 2-1 win over Lille in this season’s league phase in the UEFA Champions League.
Paris SG are on a five-game win streak in the UEFA Champions League, scoring 21 goals and only conceding three times in this run. They last won six in a row in the competition in the 1994-95 campaign, under Luis Fernandez (6).
Liverpool have lost each of their last three games in the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League, although all three of those have been against Real Madrid (2021-22 final and home/away in 2022-23 last 16). Indeed, since the start of 2020-21, four of their five losses in the knockout stages of the competition have been against Real Madrid, with Internazionale (in March 2022) the only other side to beat them.
Paris SG’s Marquinhos could make his 100th UEFA Champions League start in this game (currently on 99). He’d be just the fourth Brazilian player to achieve this milestone, after Roberto Carlos (120), Dani Alves (108) and Thiago Silva (100), as well as the first player to make 100 starts for a French club in the competition (all for Paris SG).
Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah has been directly involved in 20 goals in 30 appearances in the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League (12 goals, eight assists); the most by an African player in the competition’s history (one more than Samuel Eto'o and Didier Drogba).
Paris SG’s Achraf Hakimi leads all defenders in the UEFA Champions League this season for chances created (12) and assists (4) made while under high-intensity pressure from an opposition player. Indeed, his four such assists are the most of any player in the competition this term.
Among full backs with 300+ minutes played in the UEFA Champions League this season, the two players averaging the most line-breaking passes per 90 are Liverpool pair Andy Robertson (16.6) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (13.9).
