It started a comeback for Liverpool that eventually fell short, but it was the kind of display that gave all of us supporters hope that we might be able to bring at least a point back from Manchester United. That is unfortunately not what ended up happening, letting the hosts take the double from us for the first time in ten years. “Not good, as we go home with zero points,” Szoboszlai told the club website following the match.
“And after the first half we shouldn’t be happy at all, we should just take from this game the beginning of the second half I think because that’s when we showed properly who we are. “Before the game you speak about set-pieces, don’t concede; I don’t know when the first goal happened, you concede from a set-piece. Also you talk about counter-attacks and then the second goal happens from a counter-attack.
We have to be more focused, we have to take more care of the details and in the end hopefully the luck is going to stay on our side. ” While much of the comeback came from capitalizing on United’s mistakes, it was Liverpool’s mistakes that would have eventually undone them, despite Szoboszlai’s efforts to push the squad into the fight. His attempts at taking matches by the scruff and leading the team towards winning ways haven’t gone unnoticed, and he’s quietly been having a stellar season himself.
