On October 3rd, in the second round of the Champions League, Liverpool secured a comfortable 2-0 victory over Bologna at home. After the match, Liverpool’s manager Slot commented on the game, expressing that while the result was quite good, it did not fully satisfy him.
Slot remarked, “We scored two beautiful goals. The first half was tough for us, but we performed better in the second half. Overall, the result is good, but this game still didn’t make me happy.”
He then discussed the team’s shortcomings: “Bologna made the game very difficult, similar to our matches against Atalanta last season, where they employed man-to-man defense throughout. In such situations, you need to patiently wait for opportunities, but our final pass during transitions wasn’t satisfactory.”
Slot was particularly dissatisfied with Liverpool’s performance towards the end of the first half: “When the opponent is marking you tightly, if your long passes fail, they regain possession and can launch threatening attacks again. During the first half, we lost control for a period, but we had better control in the second half.”
