WATCH: Real Madrid let off as Liverpool miss their own penalty
Today at 04:32 PM
Real Madrid are staring down the barrel of a third defeat in five league phase matches in the Champions League, having down 1-0 down to Liverpool at Anfield. It could have been even worse for Carlo Ancelotti's side, but for the hosts missing a glorious opportunity to double their advantage.
It has been an action-packed second half on Merseyside. Alexis Mac Allister gave Liverpool the lead on 52 minutes, and although Real Madrid were awarded a penalty soon after, Kylian Mbappe's effort was saved by Caoimhin Kelleher. Now, Liverpool have missed their own spot-kick as Mohamed Salah has dragged his effort wide of Thibaut Courtois' goal.

Mbappe's penalty was not good, but somehow, Salah's has proven to be even worse. Real Madrid can breathe a huge sigh of relief at avoiding a two-goal deficit, and it could given them renewed belief in their search of an equalising goal in this Champions League contest.
