Liverpool faced an uphill struggle going into the return match in Italy after losing the first leg 3-0 at Anfield.

Liverpool still have the Premier League to play for

With Liverpool out of the Europa League now, their only chance of winning another trophy this season remains the Premier League.

After their success in the Carabao Cup, the Reds had hoped to win the FA Cup and the Premier League in Klopp’s farewell season at the club.
