Benfica coach Nelson Verissimo believes his side's Champions League fate was sealed against Liverpool after their first-leg defeat in Lisbon last week.
Jurgen Klopp's side booked their place in the semi-final of the European Cup 6-4 on aggregate after a wild 3-3 draw at Anfield on Wednesday night.
The Reds won in the Portuguese capital last week 3-1 to afford Klopp the chance to make seven changes on the night ahead of Saturday's FA Cup semi-final with Manchester City to come.
