Liverpool defeats Real Madrid as homegrown stars shine in Champions League
Liverpool defeated Real Madrid 2-0 at Anfield, with homegrown players Conor Bradley and Caoimhin Kelleher shining. Salah missed a penalty, while Kelleher saved one from Mbappe. This win leaves Real Madrid struggling to qualify for the knockout stage. Jude Bellingham faced boos from Liverpool fans, likely due to his transfer to Real Madrid despite Liverpool's interest. His friendship with Trent Alexander-Arnold may have added to the crowd's reaction as they hoped for a different outcome. In Eindhoven, U.S. players Malik Tillman and Ricardo Pepi led PSV to a dramatic comeback, scoring three late goals to win 3-2 against Shakhtar Donetsk. Meanwhile, Cameron Carter-Vickers scored an own goal for Celtic in their match against Club Brugge.
