96 per cent passing, 3 tackles - Fabinho truly saved Liverpool vs Inter (Rousing the Kop)

Liverpool scraped past Inter and into the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals on Tuesday and they have Fabinho to thank.

The Brazilian was a wall in front of the Reds’ defence and a huge reason why Inter didn’t create more. That was more than anyone else in the game and half of Liverpool’s total. Fabinho was world-class here, breaking up play and keeping the Reds in possession whenever he can.

Liverpool 0-1 (2-1 agg.) Inter Milan: Reds advance to Champions ... (DAZN News US)

The Reds did just enough to secure a spot among the final eight teams in the competition.

But Martinez changed the complexion of the game with his long-range effort, which came off a Liverpool turnover that was quickly moved into the attacking third by Ivan Perisic and Sanchez. A well-placed pass by Sanchez allowed Martinez to take a step towards goal before launching a precise strike past a diving Alisson Becker and into the top-right corner of the Liverpool net. The first hour saw Liverpool comfortably control the play, as they held a majority of the possession and struck the woodwork once in each half to keep the visitors on the back foot. A stunning goal by Lautaro Martinez in the 61st minute was followed closely by an ejection for Alexis Sanchez as Inter rode a wave of emotion during Tuesday's match.

Champions League quarter-finals: Bayern and Liverpool first teams ... (UEFA.com)

All you need to know about the 2021/22 UEFA Champions League quarter-finalists.

The 34-year-old has been diligent as successor to Hansi Flick, overseeing some fine displays and a cruise through to the last eight. He has maintained that form this season and is 2021/22 competition top scorer with 12 goals to his name. But it's what they do from now that will define the success of Julian Nagelsmann's debut season at the helm. Much like this Atlético side as a whole, the Portugal forward has grown into the campaign and is now a fixture in the side. Unai Emery's side have desperately missed the injured Gerard Moreno, but you have to give them credit for getting this far with their talismanic goalscorer reduced to a cameo role. When you throw in the fact they've already knocked out Juventus and are welcoming back Gerard Moreno from injury, they'll be confident they can go one better than their 2005/06 semi-final exit. However, they rolled back the clock with a classic display against United and might just be hitting form at the right time. The 30-year-old schemer passed 250 appearances for the club last season and remains a talismanic figure in their midfield despite the riches around him. They are so resilient and masters of backs-against-the-wall football, and will now look to add City to their recent list of English victims. How is it possible to lose at home to Sheriff, and then reach the last eight with a gargantuan performance against Paris? The route map helps explain. The former Mainz and Dortmund boss was a runner-up with Paris in 2020 before going one better with the Blues last season. And the man at the helm, Thomas Tuchel, has shown that he's one of the best around when it comes to motivating a team and keeping them goal-orientated from game to game.

Liverpool vs. Inter Milan score, player ratings: Reds advance in ... (CBSSports.com)

Liverpool lost to Inter Milan 1-0 in their Champions League round of 16 second leg on Tuesday at Anfield, but that was still enough to see the Reds advance ...

Alexis Sanchez gets the surprise start in attack and joins his fellow Chilean Arturo Vidal in the XI. So it will be Alexis and Lautaro Martinez in attack, with Edin Dzeko on the bench. It is perhaps another example of Mane regressing to the mean, which in his case is an outstanding footballer. His expected goals (xG) per 90 is 0.56, more than 20 percent higher than any of the preceding four seasons. Alexis Sanchez has not had the happiest of times on previous visits to Anfield. He never won in his time in the Premier League and last time he was here he was desperate to get out of Arsenal, 4-0 losers in August 2017. Inter have more possession (54.1 %), and they've been the more vibrant side in the early going. Goals surely to come in the second half. He seemed a little rusty after his spell on the sidelines and handed Inter a rare chance when he committed a clumsy foul late in the first half. A remarkable game for Liverpool's star forward in that the two cast-iron, surely-he-scores chances that came his way ended with the ball clattering back off both posts. Then came the dreamy pass to set up Jota for one of the best chances of the game. In possession his surprisingly swift running up the pitch forced Inter to commit fouls in dangerous spots. A crucial early header at the back post denied Lautaro Martinez what looked to be a tempting volley, setting the tone for a game of crucial late interventions. He deserves a 10/10 for aura, his mere presence forcing Lautaro to backtrack into midfield much as he had done in the first leg.
