With a 2-goal advantage at the start of the first half they were actually very good and the match was interesting only for the second half they were completely destroyed.
Becker made a few good saves for Liverpool to help them have 2 - 1 leading but later he made a personal mistake with a bad pass right to Vini Jr. and Real Madrid equalized it to 2 - 2. The fourth goal from Benzema is unlucky for Liverpool too but they were very bad after losing 2 goals advantage. A big club should not let their performance depends totally on emotion like this. 2 -2 is not a result like the end of the world for Liverpool but they collapsed quickly and easily after that.
Their condition in attack was actually very good but on the other hand when they implemented an all out attack it backfired because their defense became chaotic especially when they had great difficulty anticipating counterattacks which were indeed very fast especially for the two wings of Madrid which were very fast.
After Real Madrid scored a third goal, Liverpool look like a weak team and no longer bring enough dangerous attack towards Real Madrid defense.
This absolute victory for Madrid seems to have succeeded in getting them to walk even though there was Leg 2.
Liverpool made one of most shocking come back against Barcelona in Anfield years ago but it happened at their home stadium. This time, they will have to play at Barcelona home stadium and their chance is very slim and likely impossible.
In the final goal of Real Madrid, Modric did his job impressive and unbelievable that at his age, he could manage to run speedy like that. Many players at age of Modric retired already but he are playing in Champions League and has good shows.
