Liverpool coach Arne Slot appeared in a press statement after the 4-0 victory over Galatasaray in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16, allowing the Reds to advance to the quarter-finals despite losing the first leg 1-0.

The coach said: "I liked our performance and the way we pressed, as well as the fans' reaction when Galatasaray tried to do what I expected from them, which was to feign weakness and attempt to stop the team's momentum. The only complaint is that we have wasted many opportunities throughout the season, that's all."

He added, "The positive side is that we performed well in the first half, then there were ten-minute periods where we gave the other team a chance to score, but today nothing happened. I don't think they had any opportunities. We continued to create chances consistently."

He continued, "It is my pleasure to keep a clean sheet. We haven't conceded many chances, but we do concede goals. However, tonight we didn't concede any chances at all."

Regarding Mohamed Salah: "I believe that missing the penalty, which was a difficult moment, says a lot about his mentality. Then he provided a brilliant assist, and his goal is a trademark of his."

Regarding the support of the fans: "It means a lot to me and the players to have the support of the fans. Anfield has shown that we can create a better atmosphere than Galatasaray on their home ground. Our fans reacted when they saw them wasting time, and that had a significant impact."

Regarding the quarter-final match against Paris Saint-Germain, he concluded: "They completely outplayed us away from home last season, and then we lost on penalties. Their level hasn't dropped, but after tonight's match, they won't be happy to face us."
