Liverpool crashed out of the Europa League after a 1-0 win against Atalanta that wasn't enough to overturn their quarter-final deficit, while Bayer Leverkusen's 1-1 draw at West Ham took the German champions into the last four on Thursday.Fresh from clinching their first Bundesliga title last weekend, Leverkusen survived a scare from West Ham before advancing 3-1 on aggregate.
Liverpool were knocked out of the Europa League by Atalanta on Thursday as Jurgen Klopp's final season with the Reds took another downward turn, their Italian opponents reaching the semi-finals 3-1 on aggregate.Atalanta last reached the semi-finals of a European competition in 1988 when they were knocked out of the old Cup Winners' Cup by Mechelen.
Liverpool are in need of a second-leg comeback in Italy if they are to keep their faint treple hopes alive
Emiliano Martinez. Penalty shootout. Enough said.
