Real Madrid's Champions League reign faces a challenge as Liverpool triumphs 1-0 at Anfield, marking a turning point in their season. The match saw a hostile reception for Trent Alexander-Arnold, who returned as a substitute, sparking debate among fans and former players. Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel criticized the treatment, emphasizing Alexander-Arnold's dedication to Liverpool. However, Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher defended the fans' reaction, citing Alexander-Arnold's decision to leave for Real Madrid. The game also witnessed a mural of Alexander-Arnold near Anfield being vandalized before kickoff. Despite the controversy, Liverpool's victory and improved form, including a clean sheet, offer a glimmer of hope. Meanwhile, Arsenal's dominance in the Champions League continues with a 3-0 win over Slavia Prague, securing their top spot in the table. The Gunners' impressive run includes a 10th straight win and an eighth consecutive clean sheet. In other matches, Napoli and Eintracht Frankfurt played out a goalless draw, adding to their struggles in the competition. The Serie A champions' frustration was evident, while Eintracht's recent form has been disappointing, with a single win in eight matches.
