What a Boost! Liverpool’s Sadio Mane returns to training ahead of PSG clash

Sadio Mane trained on Tuesday afternoon ahead of Liverpool’s trip to Paris Saint-Germain after recovering from illness.Mane had been a doubt for Wednesday’s Champions League tie, but is set to travel with the rest of the squad to Paris later on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Joe Gomez was also part of the session at Liverpool’s Melwood training ground, having missed the weekend’s win at Watford with a small knock.

Liverpool fans could not hide their glee as over the international break they saw both Neymar and Kylian Mbappe hobble off injured, with many fans believing that the PSG pair would be ruled out of the big game against the Reds.

Alisson is “expecting to have a great match” as he backs Liverpool to keep out Neymar in the Champions League.

Liverpool travel to PSG on Wednesday hoping to keep their European fate in their own hands.

The Reds started their group campaign with a memorable victory over the Parisiens but have won just one more game, losing to both Napoli and Red Star away.

They must avoid defeat in France to remain in control of progression from the group, and Alisson is confident they can keep out the Ligue Un champions.

The Reds will be out of reach for PSG if they manage to get the three points from their penultimate group stage game, but that is no easy task with Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani leading the opponents’ attack.

However, Alisson is confident his side can keep PSG’s forward line quiet and expects to be in good form himself to help the cause.
