By: Shawn
Liverpool's Champions League dreams were shattered at Anfield after a heartbreaking penalty shootout loss to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

The match eventually went into extra time, and then penalties.

‎
‎In the shootout, Liverpool's Darwin Nunez and Curtis Jones saw their penalties saved by PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, with Nunez’s miss proving pivotal. The young Uruguayan forward appeared devastated as his spot-kick was denied, leaving the team with little hope of recovery. While most of Nunez's teammates rushed to console him, Mohamed Salah stood apart, away from the group, on the halfway line. With a stern expression, hands on his hips, Salah's apparent indifference was notable.
‎
‎As the final whistle confirmed Liverpool's elimination from the competition, tears were seen in Salah’s eyes, marking the end of an emotionally charged night. However, the team must now quickly regroup as they prepare for their upcoming Carabao Cup final at Wembley, where they will face Newcastle United in a bid for their first silverware of the season.
