The Reds traveled to Spain with the mission of maintaining their 100% record in the competition. Until then, they had won all five of their matches and were leading the tournament. On the other side, the opponent had struggled, with just one win in five games.
However, the match played out differently. Despite the disparity in the standings, the game was balanced, and Arne Slot’s team didn’t perform well. Apart from the penalty, only two moments truly threatened the home team’s goal: a header from Gravenberch in the first half and a shot from Alexander-Arnold in the second.
Girona, on the other hand, was unable to pressure the leaders and delivered a subpar performance. The game, which seemed to be heading toward a dull 0-0 draw, took a turn after Luis Díaz was fouled in the penalty area. Salah converted the penalty, scoring his 18th goal in 25 matches.
With this result, Liverpool remains in first place with a 100% record and is now the only undefeated team in the competition – Inter Milan was defeated in this round by Bayer Leverkusen. With 18 points, the Reds now have a seven-point lead over the first team outside the top 8. With two rounds remaining, the team has mathematically secured their spot in the Round of 16.
