Alisson Becker has highlighted a 'lack of attitude' present in Liverpool's performance against Real Madrid after they limped out of the Champions League on Wednesday evening.
Only last season, the two European giants contested the competition's final in Paris, but after Carlo Ancelotti's side left Anfield with a 5-2 Round of 16 first leg advantage, the Reds were left with a mountain to climb in Madrid. And with fresh midfield casualties limiting Jurgen Klopp's options, Los Blancos were eventually able to win the second leg 1-0 on the night to complete a comprehensive 6-2 victory on aggregate to advance to the quarter-finals.
Reds goalkeeper Alisson made a string of first half saves that kept his team in the contest until deep into the second half but it was not enough to prevent a Liverpool exit at the first knockout stage. It led to the Brazilian international conceding that his team could have shown more spirit to try and overturn the deficit.
