Head coach highlights away game in Champions League
Slot questions fixture list after difficult away trip
Arne Slot admitted his Liverpool team ran out of energy in their loss at Bournemouth, after Amine Adli’s last-minute goal handed them their first defeat since November. Liverpool had equalized from a 2-0 deficit with Dominik Szoboszlai’s remarkable free-kick, but Bournemouth responded brilliantly and Adli secured the win with a late goal from a long throw.
The Liverpool head coach felt more stoppage time should have been added by referee Michael Salisbury, considering the substitutions and VAR reviews, but acknowledged fearing a Bournemouth winner. “They could have scored 3-2 a bit earlier,” Slot remarked, referencing missed chances by Bournemouth’s Evanilson and Ryan Christie. “Some of our players ran out of energy and I can’t fault them because we played an away game just two days ago. We’re the only Champions League team with two games in between.”
