Arne Slot has revealed why Mohamed Salah remained on the bench throughout Liverpool's 2-0 Champions League defeat to PSG, stating the match had become about "survival" rather than attacking.The Reds were sunk via goals from Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, giving the Ligue 1 giants a healthy advantage heading into next week's return leg at Anfield.Salah, who leads Liverpool's scoring charts in this season's competition, was an unused substitute for the first time since December's trip to Leeds."I think in the last part of the game, it was more about surviving for us than there was ever a chance that we could score," Slot explained in his post-match press conference.TRENDINGStoriesVideosYour SayFive other players were introduced from the 78th minute onwards, including Alexander Isak, Cody Gakpo, Curtis Jones, Andy Robertson and Trey Nyoni.Slot elaborated on his decision, suggesting that Salah's exceptional talents would be wasted on purely defensive duties for such an extended period."Yeah, you never know, because last season we scored five minutes before the end, Harvey Elliott, when I took Mo off, but I think this was 20-25 minutes where we were only defending," the Liverpool manager said.He added: "And Mo has so much quality, but for Mo to be 20-25 minutes defending inside his own box, I think it's better for him to save his energy for a lot of games that are coming up in the upcoming weeks."The decision marks only the second occasion in four matches that Salah has been named among the substitutes.Despite being outplayed for much of the encounter in Paris, Slot maintained that Liverpool's hopes of progressing to the last four remain intact.LATEST SPORTS NEWS:World Cup hero attacked by bystanders and arrested in shocking footageFA in Pride court fight over 'gender politics' in footballRory McIlroy explains change in daughter Poppy as he targets second Masters titleThe head coach acknowledged that PSG had been the superior team but pointed to missed opportunities by the hosts as keeping the tie alive."They kept us alive by not scoring a few open chances. And now we can bring the tie back to Anfield," Slot said.He referenced last season's European exploits, noting that Liverpool had performed "a completely different game" at home and could have led 2-0 within half an hour.Slot drew parallels with Liverpool's victory over Galatasaray in the previous round, insisting that dramatic turnarounds remain possible in European football."Football has shown so many times that everything is possible," he stated."Red cards, incidents, penalties yes or no, and don't forget that Anfield can do a lot. Our fans do make a big difference for us."PSG boss Luis Enrique, meanwhile, was disappointed his side didn't win by more.Its a shame, clearly," he said. "I think we played a match worthy of our fans."We played very well, we deserved more goals, and I think its a shame because we did some very clear things in the second half. But its the Champions League, and you have to remember theres still the second leg, but were happy.Its a surprise; its the first time theyve played with five at the back this year."They change a few things, which is normal; opponents adapt to us."Were used to it, theres no problem. Whatever the match or the stadium, PSG will try to win, as always. We know it will be difficult at Anfield, which is special.Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter

Gianpiero Lambiase, de rechterhand van Max Verstappen bij Red Bull, gaat het Oostenrijkse Formule 1-team na 2027 verlaten, zo meldt dagblad De Limburger. Lambiase is ook Head of Racing bij Red Bull en stond al geruime tijd in de belangstelling van meerdere teams, waaronder Aston Martin en Williams. De Engelse engineer zou volgens de krant ingegaan zijn op een riant aanbod van concurrent McLaren om daar op den duur teambaas te worden. Andrea Stella, de huidige teambaas van de Engelse renstal, staat zelf op de nominatie om naar Ferrari te verkassen. Met het vertrek van Lambiase komt er ook een einde aan een jarenlange samenwerking met Verstappen bij Red Bull. De twee werken al twaalf jaar samen en in die tijd wist Verstappen viermaal de wereldtitel te veroveren en boekte hij 71 Grand Prix-overwinningen, met meestal Lambiase aan zijn zijde. De twee zijn in die periode een sterke combinatie gebleken, waarbij vaak opvalt dat Lambiase de soms verhitte Verstappen redelijk snel tot bedaren kan brengen. Zonder daarbij de confrontatie uit de weg te gaan. Uittocht bij Red Bull Het zal nog even duren voordat Lambiase de deur achter zich dichttrekt bij Red Bull, maar hij is de volgende grote naam die de renstal de rug toekeert. Eerder vertrokken teambaas Christian Horner, adviseur Helmut Marko, sportief directeur Jonathan Wheatley en topontwerper Adrian Newey. Sportief gezien gaat het dit seizoen ook nog niet voor de wind bij Red Bull. De nieuwe regels in de Formule 1 zorgen ervoor dat Verstappen het allesbehalve naar zijn zin heeft in de koningsklasse van het racen. Mede daardoor speculeerde hij de voorbije maanden op een carrire buiten de Formule 1. Zo doet hij binnenkort mee aan de 24 uursrace op de Nrburgring. Verstappen ligt nog tot en met 2028 vast bij Red Bull Racing. Mocht de Nederlander zijn contract uitdienen, dan zal hij het in zijn laatste jaar dus zonder zijn steun en toeverlaat Lambiase moeten doen.
