And even today, we conceded the set-piece, they scored one, and they could have scored a second one in the first half – that would have been the first one, but you know what I mean. Although you never know what can happen this weekend with Arsenal, because I wouldn’t be surprised if they scored three from set-pieces this weekend as well.” The Dip Liverpool’s performance was not perfect as the Reds surrendered a pair of goals in the second half.

“This happened, I think more this season, that there were three, four or five minutes during a game where we struggled a little bit,” Slot said. They scored the 3-1, I think we [then] had the biggest chance for 4-1.” Injury Update Slot provided a disappointing update on the status of Florian Wirtz and his back injury.

“I think that will be too early, but I said last week I didn’t expect him not to be available for today, so sometimes with an injury, things can develop in a positive way or in a negative way. The week after will be tight as things stand now, but as I said, I thought that he would be available for today as well, which didn’t happen unfortunately.” LFC Globe Verdict It didn’t seem as if Slot was too upset with Liverpool conceding the two goals, or if he was, it was overshadowed by his pleasure in the set pieces.
