Liverpool performance: "A good game against an opponent that is already in the middle of the season [and] used to the circumstances over here.
For example, us coming back after going 1-0 down, this is something that we did last season a lot of times; seeing players from the bench impacting the game.
It could be with a tough training camp and it could be with the heat circumstances – but that's something that we definitely have to improve towards [Athletic] Bilbao that we're going to play as our next opponent."
Ngumoha performance: "Like I said, he wasn't the only one that impacted the game from the bench because Trey Nyoni, also a youngster, scored [and was] assisted by Jeremie Frimpong.
Rio again showed the quality he has and that's nice for us because we have a lot of very good players.
