Thierry Henry walked off the CBS Sports Golazo set mid-show after a disagreement between Jamie Carragher and Peter Schmeichel.

CBS were broadcasting coverage of Paris Saint-Germain's 2-0 win over Liverpool in the Champions League quarter-finals - a result which was far more comprehensive than the scoreline might suggest.

Desire Doue opened the scoring for the hosts at Parc des Princes on 11 minutes, with star man Khvicha Kvaratskhelia making it 2-0 on 64 minutes.

PSG had several opportunities to put the tie completely to bed, with Ousmane Dembele hitting the post late on and Nuno Mendes miscontrolling the ball from around six yards out with only Giorgi Mamardashvili to beat.

Liverpool, on the other hand, failed to have a single shot on target, and there was bewilderment that manager Arne Slot failed to bring forward Mohamed Salah on from the bench.

Slot lined his Reds side up in a 5-3-2 formation, with Hugo Ekitike and Florian Wirtz playing up front.

The formation allowed Ibrahima Konate to press PSG up the field, but that led to the Frenchman often being caught out of possession.

He was fortunate to avoid giving away a penalty in second half stoppage time after shoving over Joao Neves in the area.

Liverpool's system and approach to the game was dissected at length on CBS, with the in-studio crew of Carragher, Henry, Micah Richards and Kate Scott joined by Schmeichel and pitchside reporter Anita Jones from Parc des Princes.

Midway through the segment, Henry briefly walked off stage after being left stunned by a comment from Schmeichel.

Speaking about Liverpool, the former Manchester United goalkeeper opined: "Liverpool were so compact at the back that it stopped PSG from scoring more than two goals."

While the five-defender formation was theoretically intended to keep PSG chances to a minimum, it didn't exactly work out that way, with the Champions League holders having 18 shots on Liverpool's goal and constantly breaching their backline.

Slot even described his side as being in 'survival mode' over the course of the 90 minutes in the French capital.

Carragher responded to Schmeichel: "You're one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time. Liverpool weren't compact tonight, Peter. Peter, honestly, just leave it.

"Peter, the chances! They were ripped open. They were all over the place."

While the pair were arguing, Henry slowly creeped off the stage and behind the screen.

Schmeichel retorted: "Sitting here Jamie, I think you are perhaps more emotionally involved in this so I understand where you are.

"Sat here at the stadium it did not look like they were struggling too much when PSG had the ball in front of their box.

"I agree with some of the analysis you did there on the two goals, but I actually think it helped them having that many players at the back.

"Let's talk about PSG," Carragher said. "They were amazing, weren't they?"

Henry then returned to the stage after asking his co-hosts: "Can I come back?"
