PSG 2-1 Liverpool: Reds drop to third in Champions League group after defeat

Liverpool were beaten 2-1 by PSG in their penultimate Champions League game to leave their hopes of reaching the knockout stages in the balance.  It took 13 minutes for PSG to take the lead at the Parc des Princes as Juan Bernat swept home at the near post before Neymar (37) slotted home after Edinson Cavani's flick was saved by Alisson. James Milner (45+1) pulled a goal back for Liverpool just before the break after the visitors were given a penalty when Angel Di Maria fouled Sadio Mane in the area. But neither side could find another goal in the second half and Group C will go down to the final matchday in two weeks' time, with Liverpool needing to beat Napoli 1-0 or by two clear goals to make it into the knockout rounds. Player ratings PSG:  Buffon (6), Kehrer, Thiago Silva (7), Kimpembe (6), Bernat (7), Verratti (7), Marquinhos (8), Mbappe (7), Neymar (7), Di Maria (7), Cavani (6). Subs used:  Alves (6), Choupo-Moting (5), Rabiot (5). Liverpool:  Ali
