Liverpool fans react to Real Madrid defeat

A spirited Liverpool performance saw Brendan Rodgers‘ much changed side lose 1-0 to Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday night but there were plenty of positives to take from the defeat.

It’s difficult to claim that Rodgers’ team selection was vindicated, as ultimately Liverpool still lost, but the performance was certainly better than had been feared even before talk of wholesale changes arose.

In fact, it was probably the most defensively solid performance we’ve ever seen under Rodgers. Kolo Toure marshalled the defence excellently and Simon Mignolet‘s confidence will have been helped a whole lot by his display in goal, making some crucial saves.

Here’s a round up of fans reactions and talking points from the match:

Much talk surrounded Gerrard’s exclusion, of course;
