Diego Simeone was nevertheless satisfied to have seen his men stand up to Liverpool, one of the most convincing teams of the start of the season. “They started out stronger, with more intensity. Salah went 20 yards without anyone stopping him, and the second goal was a missed clearance. I can’t be happy because we didn’t win. But the team is strong, it showed. A team that creates four clear goal situations at Liverpool is rare. I don’t know if they often had to defend like that ”, he stressed.
