Between scoring the only goal of the game and full-time at Anfield on Tuesday evening, Inter Milan failed to have a single shot.
Alexis Sanchez’ red card, coming as it did only a minute after Lautaro Martinez had given the Italian champions hope, clearly played a part in that.
Nonetheless, a Liverpool goal in the closing stages would clearly have put the tie to bed and with 14 minutes to play the Reds’ front three almost delivered it.
