Champions League review: PSG take a hit, Man City’s empty seats and teenage hope for Liverpool

The reigning champions must deal with the absence of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for some time, while fans at Anfield were thrilled by Rio Ngumoha

Paris Saint-Germain beat Barcelona 4-2 on Tuesday, but the reigning champions lost the best player in last season's tournament, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. This autumn has seen much lobbying for the Ballon d'Or, with the Georgian a popular choice, despite his absence from the World Cup. He is expected to be out for six months, although Rodri's comeback from serious injury - he was rested by Barcelona on Tuesday until coming off the bench in the 60th minute - shows it can take far longer than that for players to rediscover their highest level.
