I'm still salty about that bs foul on trent while just boxing out and trying to keep possession...we were pressing hard and had numbers and ref just killed it....we saw all damn game you were letting (real) bang and you killed a decent chance for us to make it 3-2 on a fucking flop

Real with superb record after winning first leg

Real have progressed from 15 of their last 16 Champions League knockout matches after winning the opening leg, only failing to do so against Ajax in the 2018-19 last 16.

Only teams from Spain (14) have progressed from more Champions League knockout ties after losing the first leg than sides from England (12), with Liverpool the most recent English club to do so, against Barcelona in the 2018-19 semi-finals.

In all European competitions, no side has beaten Liverpool more often than Real (4, level with Benfica), with the Reds suffering defeat in each of the last four encounters with Los Blancos.

Salah has now scored 27 goals this season, four more than he managed last season, while equalling his tally from 2018-19 - only in 2017-18 (44) did he score more for Liverpool in a single campaign.

Benzema has now appeared in 108 Champions League matches for Real - the outright most by a non-Spaniard, with only Ramos (128), Raul (130) and Iker Casillas (150) playing more for the club in the competition.

Only Kylian Mbappe in April 2017 (18y 113d v Borussia Dortmund) has scored a Champions League brace at the quarter-final stage (or later) at a younger age than Real Madrid's Vinicius (20y 268d).

Asensio has scored in four straight matches for Real in all competitions, managing as many goals over this period as he did across his previous 41 matches (4).

Real boss Zidane took charge of his 50th game in the Champions League, with this his 31st victory in the competition. Indeed, only Jupp Heynckes (32) won more of his first 50 managerial games in the competition than the Frenchman.

Crazy but a 2-0 win next match, which i believe is possible, advances us. Huzzah?

It’s not crazy talk. I dunno if we can afford to play Kabak and Nat back there though. They just are not very athletic at all but I guess we don’t have any other choice
