The Reds responded well to Dominik Szoboszlai missing a penalty by taking a deserved 1-0 lead into half-time, courtesy of a powerful Wirtz strike in the 42nd minute.
But Scott Parker’s visitors capitalised on several let-offs to secure a point, with Marcus Edwards thrashing the equaliser past Alisson Becker midway through the second period.
Read on for Wirtz’s reaction to the Premier League contest.
On how ‘frustrating’ the result is…
Yeah, very frustrating. I think, as you said, we had a lot of chances – enough chances to decide the game early. We missed that today. So, very disappointing.
On the decision-making in the final third…
A few times maybe we could decide a little bit better. But we were also – with Hugo [Ekitike]’s goal, which was offside, I think – a little bit unlucky in a few moments. But we have to be better in front of the goal. I think there weren’t so many big, big chances but in the end we scored one goal and that was not enough today.
