WATCH: Real Madrid let off as Liverpool miss their own penalty

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.
