Reigning English champions Liverpool fell 7-2 to Aston Villa in the Premier League on Sunday. The great English club trailed 4-1 at halftime and then the decline continued in the second half of the match until a defeat by a five-goal margin.
Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk was very disappointed afterwards.
– It’s hard to lose the way we did tonight. Aston Villa did well and we can give them the credit they deserve. But we felt like this was a great effort, where we weren’t one hundred percent from start to finish. We should have done better with the goals we conceded, as well as the chances we had. Now the key for us is to stick together and make sure this doesn’t happen again, he says according to The Guardian and continues:
– We should have been more clinical and we should have been better at everything in the game. We’re not going to go crazy or anything like that, but we have to step up. There was too much difference between this game and Arsenal’s in the League. The gaps were too great.
Liverpool now have nine points after four games played and are fourth in the Premier League. Then the team against Everton will be absent on October 17 in the league. Aston Villa, in turn, has nine points after three games in the league this season.
