A 1-0 win

The first tiebreaker is HtH points
- both would have 3 as Napoli won 1-0 in the first match

Second tiebreaker is GD in HtH
- both would be 0 with equal 1-0 matches

Third tiebreaker is Goals in HtH
- both would have 1

Fourth tiebreaker is away goals in HtH
- again, both would be tied

Fifth tiebreaker is GD in all group matches
- Both would be +2

Sixth tiebreaker is Goals scored in all group matches
- Napoli would have 7 and Liverpool would have 9



PS, I'm not sure why so many folks are reporting that Liverpool has to win by 2, that's not true (as you pointed out).

The +2 comes into play if Napoli scores.

1-0 is the only scoreline where Liverpool can win by one and advance, assuming PSG win their match. I'm sure a lot of the reports of which you speak come from people that can't read/comprehend.

And my post was made when a 3 goal win would be needed and it looked like it might be worse. Had some fortune in the final scoreline.
