PSG keeper breaks Anfield hearts in shootout drama

- By Chris McKenna

GIANLUIGI DONNARUMMA broke Liverpool hearts last night as the PSG keeper saved two penalties in a dramatic shoot-out finale to send Arne Slot's side crashing out.

Ousmane Dembele had put the visitors back on level terms, as this Champions League cracker went to extra-time last night.

But it all came down to spot-kicks, and the giant Italian keeper spread his frame to save from Darwin Nunez and Curtis Jones, while Desire Doue fired home the decisive penalty.

It was another epic European encounter under the lights at Anfield.

Yet the Reds will wonder how they did not win this tie in normal time.

They were the better side but failed to convert their chances after surviving some first-half scares.

Dembele's 12th-minute strike after a defensive mix-up between Ibrahima Konate and Alisson set this had given him sleepless nights, as he up to be a blockbuster battle.
