Liverpool coach, Jurgen Klopp, reacted to his team’s defeat to Bournemouth in the 2022-2023 Premier League continuation. Disappointed, Klopp said the defeat occurred because the game shown by Mohamed Salah cs did not match his expectations.
Furthermore, Klopp said his players were often carried away by the opponent’s playing patterns. This was also the main reason Liverpool failed to score, even though they actually dominated the match.
“I am very very disappointed. The game was completely opposite to what we wanted to show and do today,” said Jurgen Klopp, quoted from Liverpool’s official website, Sunday (12/3/2023).
“I think we played almost 95 minutes the way Bournemouth wanted to play and some minutes maybe, some moments, we did things we actually wanted to do.”
“Had great chances after set pieces that we didn’t use. We should have scored a goal, but didn’t do it,” Klopp explained.
Yes, Liverpool must swallow a bitter pill when they travel to Bournemouth headquarters, Vitality Stadium, Bournemouth, Saturday 11 March 2023. They lost with a score of 0-1.

After that match, Liverpool now sits fifth in the 2022-2023 Premier League standings. They scored 42 points from 26 matches that have been undertaken.
