“It’s not easy when they park the bus in front of the door”

Alisson Becker, Liverpool goalkeeper, appeared at a press conference after the match against Atlético de Madrid.

Match rating

“It was a very exciting match. It is this match that a player wants to play in a top match. I have finally managed to win at this stadium. These are three very important points for me and for the achievements I want to achieve. We know that we have to improve. We arrived with a good result on Saturday but we knew that was not worth it “.

Penalty

“I was pretty sure it wasn’t a penalty. I went straight to tell the referee that it wasn’t a penalty. The VAR has checked it well. Have the pictures can see it better. It wasn’t easy because I had a lot of pressure from the rival team and the fans. You have made the right decision.

Wrong

“I am very happy for Salah. It goes without saying how good it is. He makes very difficult goals. Defend a lot. Play for the team. He is a very hungry forward. With a lot of desire to win ”.

Alisson’s dribble

“I would never enter a game saying that I am going to dribble a striker. I try to calculate it. Sometimes I can help the team if I take certain risks. You have to know how to calibrate the moment ”.

Chat at break

“The coach is a master when it comes to speaking. He knows how to say the right things at the right times. It’s not easy after going 2-0 after the first few minutes. We knew it was not going to be easy to play against Atlético. Anyone who has seen the game knows that it was not easy. We have room for improvement, we had one more player than them. It is not easy when they park the bus in front of the door, but we go with the three points ”.

Moments before the penalty

“At that moment I try to be centered. He was convinced that he was going to cancel that penalty. There was a chance that he would go ahead. Remember what I have seen of the rivals to think about how they have taken penalties. It could be a decision that they may think is unfair but you have to be focused ”.
