Jornal Do Brasilia - Szoboszlai says sorry to Liverpool fans after Man City incident

Liverpool's players were jeered when they walked over to applaud their supporters following the embarrassing 4-0 loss against City in the quarter-finals.

Szoboszlai responded by shrugging, raising his arms and clapping in a move widely interpreted as sarcasm and frustration with the fans' abuse.

The Hungary midfielder was ushered away by Liverpool team-mate Federico Chiesa, but Szoboszlai tried to play down the incident ahead of Tuesday's Champions League quarter-final second leg against holders Paris Saint-Germain.

"Maybe it was a misunderstanding between me and the fans," he told reporters on Monday.

"I didn't mean it in a bad way. Obviously I know what the fans mean to this club and what the club means to the fans.

"We do everything for the fans as they do for us. If it was a misunderstanding then I apologise.

"I'm not feeling better than them, I feel exactly the same as they do. I am with them, we are with them and hopefully they are with us as well."

Liverpool are on the verge of elimination from the Champions League at the hands of PSG for a second successive season.

A lacklustre performance in Paris last week has left Arne Slot's side with a daunting task if they are to produce a stunning upset against the champions at Anfield.

"We're going to go all in and give our best. I'm ready to die on the pitch tomorrow (Tuesday)," Szoboszlai said.

"It is going to be a different game from the first leg. We are going to be doing stuff in a different way.

"I can speak for all of the players because we want it so bad. Anything can happen in one game at Anfield."
