Liverpool's Champions League journey reached its conclusion on Wednesday evening after failing to get the better of Real Madrid over two legs.
Heading to the Bernabeu with it all to do, Jurgen Klopp's side rarely threatened the goal of the home side and made life relatively comfortable for goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois. Far busier on the night was his opposite number Alisson Becker, who produced a string of impressive saves to ensure the aggregate score was kept only at 6-2 in favour of Los Blancos.
The Reds now have an opportunity to reflect on their back-to-back defeats and find solutions to the problems threatening the team's hopes of competing in Europe's elite competition next term. Manchester City are up next on April 1, hardly the fixture many would have wanted directly after the international break.
