— The defeat to PSV? As I expected, it was an intense match with many goals. There were reasons for this. One of the reasons is that both coaches try to apply high pressure. Therefore, players often make mistakes, and the game becomes more lively.

And another reason is related to the fact that both teams, especially ours, didn’t play as they usually do, so at certain moments, it’s clear that the defense doesn’t operate quite as it should compared to the regular squad players. But in the end, we still managed to create intrigue, especially considering the large number of young players on the field. So, the word “intense” is quite suitable for describing this game,” said Arne Slot.

It’s worth adding that based on the results of the group stage of the Champions League, “Liverpool” ranked first with 21 points in their account.
