Liverpool failed but gave fans hope that the Jurgen Klopp era can still have a magical ending, writes LEWIS STEELE

Daily Mail  

We're all tired, but it's dangerous to spread that message. Salah’s goal after just seven minutes set the senses tingling that another great comeback was well on the cards but Gian Piero Gasperini’s hard-working side soon settled and induced this tie to fizzle out. The task in Atalanta proved too much for Liverpool after a disastrous first leg Harvey Elliott sat on his haunches at full-time after Liverpool's slender win proved insufficient The brilliant Italian side were able to dig in and deny Liverpool clear-cut chances The Reds played well overall and at least offered hope for the end of the season Mo Salah scored from the spot early on as Liverpool made the perfect start in Bergamo Salah grabbed the ball quickly and rushed back to restart the game for the Reds Ice in those veins! Luis Diaz toiled against the resilient Atalanta defence and the hosts made life difficult Alexis MacAllister pulled the strings for Liverpool in midfield of a strong line-up Salah missed a big chance at 1-0 and his lob went astray, which could have changed the game The Reds seemed bang up for the challenge and Atalanta looked nervous. Gian Piero Gasperini roared in celebration of a job well done as his side progressed Virgil van Dijk applauded the travelling supporters after Liverpool's Europa League exit Atalanta's players saluted the crowd, who had provided an excellent atmosphere ‘Yes, it is a bad feeling to be out so we have to get back up,’ said captain Virgil Van Dijk.
