Liverpool coach Arni Slot appeared in press statements after the loss against Eindhoven 3-2 in the last round of the Champions League league.

The coach said: "It was a match full of events with many matches, and I think everyone expected this before the match."

On Federico Keiza: "Seven, eight or nine months have passed, perhaps more and it was important to get the chance of playing for 90 minutes. It was also important to be able to compete for 90 minutes, he was always running and doing his job."

On the expulsion of Amara Nalo just four minutes after his first appearance in the Champions League: "It is harsh, but he did not play football with the first team before, and your first appearance in the Champions League may be the most difficult."

He added, "Amara Nalo has misrepresented the situation and this is a great moment to learn from it. It is harsh when you think I am playing my first match in the Champions League but you are going out a few minutes later."

He stressed: "The professional march is not always positive, but also has negatives and he has to make sure that he participates in this competition again."

And about James McConnell: "If I had been surprised, this means that he was not at this level in the training, but it was competitive. I am not surprised but you always wonder how you will interact at this stage at this level. James deserves praise for his performance today."
