Alisson Becker 6
Largely unemployed but then made a pig’s ear of Benzema’s disallowed goal and was then almost tackled by the same player moments later. Saved well at Vinicius feet and no chance on goal.
Trent Alexander-Arnold 6
Not overly troubled by Vinicius defensively first half and strong moments going forward, but failed to track the Brazilian for the winner.
Ibrahima Konate 8
Bullied Vinicius early on and caused Real a few issues when taking the ball out from the back. Good defending as the game became stretched late on.

Virgil van Dijk 7
Stepped out of the defensive line on occasion to deal with Benzema first half and not required much after that.
Andy Robertson 7
Pushed on whenever he could before break to support Diaz and was solid at the back. Became more involved as Liverpool pressed for a leveller.
Fabinho 7
Mopped up when required but Liverpool’s first-half dominance meant he was more often on the defensive. Same story again second half.
Thiago Alcantara 6
Some good touches early on calmed nerves after injury concerns, but quiet after that and wasn’t 100%. Subbed.
Jordan Henderson 7
Looked to get Liverpool moving during a lively opening and some decent defensive interventions. Good second half but sacrificed in search of an equaliser.
Mohamed Salah 7
A bit slow at moving ball at times first half, but still twice tested Courtois and then drew three excellent saves from the goalkeeper second half.
Sadio Mane 7
Caused Real constant problems with power and quick feet and saw fierce shot turned on to post by Courtois. Not much protection from referee, though.
Luis Diaz 6
Began brightly up against Carvajal but the Real defender began to edge the battle the longer the game progressed. Subbed.
Diogo Jota (for Diaz 65) 6
Among the many Liverpool players denied by Courtois.
Naby Keita (for Henderson 77) 6
Brought impetus to the midfield but the less said about his shot the better.
Roberto Firmino (for Thiago 77) 7
Instantly caused problems with his ability to keep and use possession.
