Van Dijk: I can’t understand the twelve-yard ruling and must adjust my mentality to prepare for Crystal Palace

6686 Sports October 26th In the 9th round of the Premier League, the away team of Liverpool lost to Brentford 2-3 and suffered a 4th consecutive defeat in the Premier League. After the game, Liverpool captain Van Dijk accepted interviews with the media.

Talk about this defeat

I feel desperate about this defeat. We know our opponents' strengths and anticipate their strategic intentions. We should be on the same level as them.

It was definitely a frustrating night for us and we would have liked to continue the performance we had against Frankfurt. Although the results are difficult to accept, this is the reality and we must keep moving forward.

Talking about his violation that was sentenced to 12 yards

I can’t understand this ruling. The referee first said that the ball was on the line of the three-second zone when the violation occurred, and then marked the violation location two meters outside the three-second zone. I couldn't figure out the situation at all, and in the end he gave his opponent twelve yards.

Talk about meeting Crystal Palace again next week

We will face Crystal Palace again in the League Cup next week. This opponent has caused us a lot of suffering this season. We must quickly adjust our mentality to prepare for the game. Crystal Palace will definitely not give up when it comes to Anfield.

Talk about being unable to keep an opponent clean for 9 consecutive games

It is difficult to pinpoint the reason. People always like to blame a certain player, the entire defense or the set-piece defense for problems, but in the final analysis it is the responsibility of the entire team. It’s time for everyone to look in the mirror and reflect on themselves, including me, but I believe we will get out of this.

But empty talk alone will not help. We will work hard to improve. We need each other's support, and the fans who celebrated with us last year need to be with us even more now. With the strength of the team on both offense and defense, I believe we will be able to get out of the predicament.
