Champions League: Liverpool Shuts Out Inter (2-0), Bayern Scores Late to Save Crucial Point Against Salzburg (1-1)

Another afternoon in Europe saw two more Champions League matches in the knockout rounds. Liverpool nabbed two second-half goals from Roberto Firmino (75’) and Mohamed Salah (83’) to blank Inter (2-0). The bizarre scoresheet featured just two combined shots on target — both goals — as neither goalkeeper recorded an official save. In the Bundesliga battle, Bayern Munich scored a 90th-minute equalizer from Kingsley Coman to salvage a point against RB Salzburg (1-1). Four more matches take the pitch next week.
