The Liverpool players experienced another heavy defeat in the Premier League against Wolverhampton with a score of 3:0, and manager Jurgen Klopp could not find an excuse for this defeat.
As the main reason for the defeat, he cited mistakes that “gifted” the first two goals to the Wolves.
“It is not unusual for us to concede a goal soon after the start of the match, but the way we conceded them is unacceptable. When you look at the whole match, we had periods of great play without conceding a goal. I will not count the third goal because it was the only time they made a pass in our half in the second half.
The start was terrible, we entered the match with all the things we talked about… You don’t do yourself a favor in those moments, you give the ball to the opponent easily. We were passive with two goals, all we wanted was to be compact and active, but we were compact and passive. I can’t explain,” Jurgen Klopp said.
The poor defense of the Reds was visible, which is why this team has many problems this season.
“Leadership in defense is lacking, but that is not my first explanation of this situation. We had to do better. We have to do better in the sense that we don’t get into these situations where we need to chase the game. We didn’t finish things properly, we missed the final pass, and the intensity with which we played was good, but we put ourselves in very average positions for two goals. We have to change that for sure. I really have no words for that, I’m sorry,” Klopp added.
