ATALANTA 0
LIVERPOOL 1
Salah pen 7
LIVERPOOL did lose in a "most-beautiful way" as Jurgen Klopp demanded - but they still suffered their worst European exit under him.
Not even Klopp's poetry could hide this humiliation and this is a major black mark in his final season.
Klopp had only lost to the two Madrid and Sevilla in his eight European campaigns at Anfield and nobody expected Atalanta to join that list.
As spirited as Liverpool were last night, the damage was clearly done at Anfield and even the Reds, with their fabled powers of recovery, could not pull this one back.
Certainly not the Liverpool of now and all they had to show for their endeavours was an early Mohamed Salah penalty.
That's the only goal they have managed in their last three games and they are not back to their best yet.
