"We didn’t win so the answer is not.But we did quite well, we improved our performance in respect of the last matches," Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker after their draw with Everton on Saturday.
 
"We created chances, so many clear chances. We could have scored but the opponent as well had their opportunities.
 
“We defended well, enough to keep the clean sheet – that is the common goal for the team, we work hard for that. For today we get a point and just keep on going.”
 
The last meeting between Napoli and Liverpool in the Champions League was on 27 November 2019.
 
The two teams played to a 1-1 draw in a game which took place at the iconic Anfield.
