PSG vs Liverpool LIVE: Champions League score and updates as superb Alisson denies hosts opening goal

It’s been brilliantly entertaining stuff in Paris.

Liverpool have been disappointing by their standards and are perhaps lucky to even have 11 men on the pitch, but they’re obviously still in this.

PSG will be wondering how they aren’t ahead, but all their dominance will count for nothing if they don’t get a goal or two to take to Anfield.

The referee blows the whistle and the first half comes to an end in Paris.

it’s been a great half for the neutral, and PSG have performed brilliantly at times.

Liverpool haven’t been themselves, but they’re still in with a chance of having Paris with a vital lead.

Nevertheless, it’s probably the toughest opponent they’ve faced all season up to now, and it shows in the players’ faces.

Dembele’s cross is blocked for a throw, and we’ll have what is likely the final chance of the half as PSG recycle possession.

Hakimi tries to find Barcola with the near-post run, but the cross is just a second too early and Konate shepherds his compatriot off the ball, before Liverpool clear via Szoboszlai.

Half a chance for the visitors this time as Mac Alliater’s corner is nodded on but Salah can’t reach it at the far post!

There’ll be two minutes of added time in Paris.

There’s a brief break in play as Jota is down after being fouled near halfway, but he’ll be okay to carry on.

From the free-kick, it almost falls for Jota but Mendes does brilliantly to poke it away from the striker.

It’s about 25 yards this set-piece – and it’s deflected behind.

From the corner, van Dijk heads away well before Liverpool win a free-kick for offside.

Plenty of fluidity to PSG tonight with Barcola and Kvaratskhelia picking the ball up in a variety of positions across the front line at times this half.

They get forward again and they win a free-kick as Hakimi is barged over by Diaz near the edge of the area.

Kvaratskhelia is playing brilliantly out here. He opts to do it all himself this time, picking the ball up in the box in an isolated position before twisting and working the space for a low shot that forces a good diving save from Alisson.

Moments later, Marquinhos is the first booking of the day as he blocks Jota on the counter.

It’s been frantic stuff here at the Parc des Princes, and we still have around 10 minutes of this half to go.

Liverpool look a little shocked at the tempo and quality that they’re facing at the moment, though they’ve settled somewhat in the last couple of minutes.
