In Group C, Liverpool suffered its second consecutive loss. In Paris, Jürgen Klopp's team had a sensational sensation against Paris Saint-Germain, who climbed to second place thanks to a 2-1 victory over Bernat and Neymar's goals against the English.

Paris Saint-Germain – Liverpool 2-1
The French fought tonight for one of the last chances of overwintering and that was good from the start. Liverpool was not involved. Paris Saint-Germain put pressure on them, was fierce and played football easily. The first opportunities also came from the home team. Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson had to play with Ángel Di María and Kylian Mbappé. The deserved advance for Paris Saint-Germain fell after just under a quarter of an hour. Liverpool's defense has not been good, with the team scoring very few goals this season. Van Dijk and his teammates do not enter the ball and Juan Bernat could hit the left corner without a hitch.
Paris Saint-Germain then collapsed and relied on speed in the front. Thus, the 2-0 lead came about eight minutes before the break, after the three Paris strikers came out fast. Mbappé allowed Cavani to score, but Uruguayan failed. Neymar then scored 2-0 behind his compatriot rebound. There did not seem to be any problem for Thomas Tuchel's team, but just before half-time, Di María Sadio Mané was down in the sixteen years and James Milner was using the penalty kick in the very last seconds of the first half to occupy the tying goal. After the rest, there were few opportunities. Marquinhos led Alisson out of corner by Neymar. Despite the low margin of Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool was virtually nothing in the second half, making PSG a very important home win. Liverpool, finalist of last year, fell to third place because of defeat and must seriously take into account the elimination.
Napoli – Red Star Belgrade 3-1
The leader of the league Napoli had an easy night against the last minute. The red star of Belgrade, who also had a chance to winter due to a win in the previous round in Liverpool. Dries Mertens already had a great chance to score 1-0 after a few minutes, but still hit the keeper. This was the harbinger of an avalanche of chances on the part of the Naples team. After eleven minutes, Marek Hamšík opened the scoring by tapping a corner. Red Star received Veljko Simi in the back? an excellent chance for the equalizer, but here again it was mainly one-way traffic. Via Kalidou Koulibaly, Naples could have doubled the score, but his header was under the bar. Shortly after, Dries Mertens went on 2-0. He was lucky with a bit of luck and just typed inside. José Callejón had the chance to score 3-0 before half-time, but his shot was blocked.
A few minutes after the break, Dries Mertens started the game in the final with his second goal of the night. His shot is superbly finished in the upper left corner. Red Star came back a bit, but Nabouhane's hit was only for statistics. The victory of the Italians, who played the game professionally, was no longer in danger. Napoli now has nine points, one more than number two PSG and three more than number three Liverpool. The Italians in the next round of play at one point on Anfield have enough to place for the next round and thus eliminate Liverpool.
