Van Dijk : We still have another 90 mints,with Atletico

-




Virgil van Dijk insists Liverpool should remain confident after falling behind at the halfway stage of their Champions League tie with Atletico Madrid.
The La Liga side established a 1-0 advantage in the first leg at Estadio Metropolitano on Tuesday night through a fourth-minute goal by Saul Niguez.
The Reds had 72.5 per cent of the possession in Spain but were unable to translate that dominance of the ball into clear chances against a dogged Atletico.
They will, however, have an opportunity to put that right at Anfield in three weeks’ time and Van Dijk looked optimistically towards the second leg.


“We knew it was going to be a proper battle tonight, especially here at their home ground with the fans behind them,” the No.4 told BT Sport post-match.
“Obviously it didn’t help that we conceded the goal from a corner, the first chance for them – not even a chance, a bit of luck. But it counts. It was tough.
“We had the ball most of the game but, unfortunately, we couldn’t create massive opportunities. But we still have another 90 minutes to set it straight and we should be full of confidence still.”

Liverpool's season so far: August

A fruitful August featured a perfect start to the Premier League season and UEFA Super Cup glory for Liverpool. Having begun the month with a penalty shootout defeat by Manchester City in the FA Community Shield, the Reds bounced back immediately to beat Norwich City 4-1 at Anfield on the opening day of the top-flight campaign. An own goal by Grant Hanley and strikes from Mohamed Salah , Divock Origi and Virgil van Dijk - who would be named UEFA Men's Player of the Year later in August - saw Jürgen Klopp's side surge into a four-goal, half-time lead. An eventful first 45 minutes also saw Adrian make his debut for the club just four days after signing, the goalkeeper replacing the injured Alisson Becker for his first of 11 consecutive appearances in the league and Europe.
