On a great team performance…
We’re really happy. [We had] a great mentality and a great energy in the stadium from the fans. [They were] unbelievable. I never felt this, to be honest. It was crazy so I think everyone got a lot of energy from that. It was great team spirit, great fight and a great performance.

But [it was] brilliant from Ali [Alisson Becker], Ibou [Konate] and Virgil [van Dijk] to defend those crosses. We went down but, like I said, the fans were giving us energy after that a lot. Two quick goals, 2-1 on half-time and after that you know what happens.
