Arne Slot States Why Manchester United Deserved More Than 3-0 Loss in Honest Verdict After Pre-season Victory
Liverpool concluded their USA pre-season tour with a 3-0 triumph over Manchester United.
Arne Slot admitted that Liverpool allowed too many opportunities despite their win against Manchester United.
The Reds finished their American pre-season tour with a 3-0 victory over their Premier League counterparts.
Fabio Carvalho and Curtis Jones found the net in the first half, and Kostas Tsimikas added to the scoreline after halftime.
Liverpool had a stroke of luck during their match in Columbia, North Carolina. Goalkeepers Caomhin Kelleher and Vitezslav Jaros each made crucial saves around half-time to deny United.
Slot, who also secured victories against Real Betis and Arsenal in his first pre-season tour as head coach, admitted that the final score might not fully reflect the game. He told LFCTV:
“We’re very happy with the result. We scored some very nice goals but I don’t think we had enough control over the game because United were threatening us more than a few times. It’s a 3-0 win but the score could have been different tonight as well.
“The results is what everyone is looking at but the players have stayed fit and are able to perform in the way we want, a high-intensity game.
“We saw some great goals during his tour, some great build-up situations and I see them working really hard not to concede. Today, we gave away too many chances. “United deserved more than a 3-0 loss but it’s also our quality we scored all of our chances.”
