England – Liverpool failed to win for the second consecutive match in various tournaments following losing yesterday to Crystal Palace 1-0 in the 33rd round of the English Premier League, losing 5 valuable points in the struggle for the title.
Eberechi Eze scored the only goal of the match in the 14th minute, as Liverpool lost at home for the second match in a row following a clean hat-trick once morest Atalanta in the first leg of the Europa League quarter-finals.
With this loss, Liverpool fell to third place in the Premier League table, with a goal difference behind Arsenal (runner-up) and two points behind Manchester City (leader).
German Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool coach, expressed his deep dissatisfaction with the defeat, in statements to Sky Sports following the match, in which he said: “This time I really feel very bad. It is ugly. I need time to process that. Standing here and talking regarding this match is something.” “Very difficult.”
He added: “We played two different matches, in the first and second half. The first half we were not good, because of the remnants of the last match ( once morest Atalanta), and then we received that (horrible) goal from a completely free player in the area. This cannot happen, but it happened.” .
He added: “Andy Robertson saved us from another goal, then we controlled better in the second half. I saw opportunities for Darwin, Jota and Salah, and once more we did not score. This is an ugly thing.”
He concluded: “The match in the second half was much better. Trent entered and the structure changed. We caused problems and had very big chances. If we had stood here and won the match 4-1, we might have seen the same match with a completely different result.” But we didn’t do that!
