Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk was left disappointed with their latest performance as they drew 2-2 with Aston Villa, despite having a golden opportunity to overtake them but missed. He could not interpret it as anything other than being sarcastic towards teammate Darwin Nunez who put his foot into the stands.
The Reds took a 1-0 lead through Mohamed Salah in the 26th minute, but conceded two goals to Youri Tielemans and Ollie Watkins, ending the first half 1-2 behind.
Back to play and chase for a while, 13 minutes into เว็บพนันออนไลน์ UFABET สมัครง่าย โปรโมชั่นมากมาย the second half. They equalized 2-2 from a long shot by Trent Alexander-Arnold, which deflected off Tyrone Mings and into the goal.
Until the 68th minute, the visiting team had a golden opportunity when Dominik Soboszlai broke into the frame on the right and passed it across to Darwin, a substitute who fired a poor shot that went over the bar, almost knocking the ball to the head.
Throughout the season, Van Dijk has had to make repeated mistakes. So he has had to come out and indirectly criticize the 25-year-old player.
“A little disappointed but we fought, we had a chance to win the game, took the risk at the end. So the game opened up a bit more,” he told Football on Ufabet Sports.
“We can collect points and focus on the big game at the weekend.”
“In terms of possession we did quite well, created good chances to make it 2-0. Just unfortunately conceded a goal from a set piece.”
“We tried everything but unfortunately we weren’t good enough to get the three points. We deserved 3-2 but credit to Aston Villa, they made it difficult for us.”
“We’ve another tough game this weekend, with Newcastle on the cards – the immediate focus is on Man City away, a very tough game, we know that.”
“We did everything we had to win the game. Now we’re focused on Sunday.”
