Alan Shearer has heaped praise on Liverpool midfielder Stefan Bajcetic after his performance against Real Madrid. 

Liverpool were defeated heavily by Champions of Europe Real Madrid, who scored five times at Anfield to put themselves in the driving seat ahead of the return leg in Spain.

Despite the disappointing Liverpool performance, Shearer picked out one player who stood out for the Premier League side.

“It was a lesson for Stefan Bajcetic in how it could and should be done but he tried hard, worked hard and never gave up. However, he is in there with some of the best in there tonight, it was always going to be difficult for him,” said Shearer, speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live.
