Arne Slot said Liverpool's Champions League defeat to Paris Saint-Germain was the best game of football he's ever been involved in despite the Reds crashing out of the competition.
Liverpool lost on penalties after Ousmane's Dembele's goal levelled the tie, with substitutes Darwin Nunez and Curtis Jones both seeing their kicks saved by Gianluigi Donnarumma, with PSG scoring all four of their kicks.
Slot, whose side are 15 points clear at the top of the Premier League and play against Newcastle in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday, said: "I think it was the best game of football that I was ever involved in. Incredible performance, especially if you comapre it with last week, the first 20-25 minutes, we were all over them. We created chance after chance, and all of a sudden we were 1-0 down, so it was probably the opposite of the luck we had last week."
Reds captain Virgil van Dijk said: "It was a very intense great game of football, I think to be part of it as well. It was totally there for Liverpool and what we showed in Paris and unfortunately were out on penalties and that is the reality.
"I think in the first half we created dangerous moments and they have the quality as well, and then it comes down to penalties.
"It's part of football, I said to the guys, obviously, you can be disappointed because we're out of the competition, but chin up and get ready for the next challenge, a beautiful one on the weekend.

"Today from the first second and then extra time, when fatigue kicks in for both sides, it becomes more open but especially regular time, we showed a very good game. We can speak about the game for ages but we're out of the competition, that is the reality."
