Slott: This is what I asked of Nunez, and this is what we have to do against Arsenal

Liverpool coach Arne Slot appeared in press statements after beating Leipzig 1-0 in the third round of the Champions League round.

The coach said: "First of all, we are really happy with the win. We played a tough game away from home, we controlled the game for large parts except for the last few minutes, we needed Virgil, Konate and our goalkeeper. If we had drawn, I would have felt like we lost something."

He added about Kelleher: “I am very lucky. It is also normal in a club like ours to have very good players in every position. We have players who are not always in the squad.” The basics, but they gave an outstanding performance.”

He continued: “Darwin Nunez? I asked him to score a goal and he scored a goal for us, but in the period leading up to the goal, Jacopo was important And Mo Salah made an assist. It was a collective goal. It makes me happy to see that Darwin did a really good job today.”

On facing Arsenal next week: “ We have to play this match and we know how strong Arsenal is, especially at home. Arteta has done an amazing job in the past few years and we have to be at the top of our game to achieve a positive result.”
