Arne Slot spoke after his Liverpool side secured a 2-0 victory over Fulham in their Premier League Matchday 32 clash. The Reds now hold a five-point lead over Chelsea in the race for Champions League qualification. Even if the Londoners defeat Manchester City today, the champions will remain in fifth place.
“I’m happier than I was after the 4-0 and 2-0 defeats. It was a good first half, we came close to scoring on several occasions. Just as I started to feel Fulham finding their rhythm, Rio Ngumoa helped us with a fantastic dribble past a defender, and then Mo Salah scored. We were quite comfortable at halftime.”
“The dressing room today was better than it was two or three days ago, or even a week ago. It’s not like everything is back to normal after one win. Of course, everyone understands the situation after two losses – a 4-0 defeat and a 2-0 loss that felt more like a 2-0 loss. The win against Fulham after only two days of rest shows the team’s character.”
“We’ve played many matches like today’s this season, but unfortunately, they haven’t always ended in a win or a clean sheet. I’m very pleased that we kept a clean sheet, and we definitely need that to happen again on Tuesday against PSG,” Slot stated.
