Van Dijk: Liverpool's defense must be improved

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk, assessing his team needs improvement at the back. It was said after the victory over Salzburg in the Champions League.

Liverpool struggled to win 4-2 at home to Salzburg in the first two days of Champions League Group E at Anfield on Thursday (2019/03/10). The Reds have three lead goals in the game, before finally equalizing for the visitors.

Fortunately, Mohamed Salah was able to ensure Liverpool's victory at the end of the fight.

"There is room for improvement, it's quite clear. Obviously, they are good, a lot of movement on the front lines. When there is a second ball, it belongs all the time, especially in the second half, but I am very happy that we won in the end," said Van Dijk Viasport.

"You have to give them too much credit. Salzburg is a good team. They play good football, a lot of pressure, and they keep going, so you have to give them too much credit. Obviously, we can do better, and that is a sign that we still have to improve. "

Van Dijk himself was tricked by Hwang Hee-Chan during the first goal from Salzburg.

"We are not talking about their goals in the dressing room. We just want to do better. We want to score more goals. We will, in particular, get the win and we succeed," Van Dijk said.
