Arne Slot got ‘all he could ask for’ from his team at San Siro

Arne Slot spoke about the performance of his players in a 1-0 victory over Inter Milan.

**Liverpool**lost 4-1 in the Champions League to **PSV Eindhoven**a fortnight ago, and they had also drawn in their last two Premier League games against Sunderland(1-1) and Leeds United (3-3).

Dominik Szoboszlai sealed the three points with a penalty that was controversial as Florian Wirtz fell easily to the floor, but Ibrahima Konaté had been dubiously denied a headed goal in the first half. Whether or not justice had been served, the Reds were rewarded for their resilience in Italy.

“[I got] all I could ask for, I think. The fourth game in 10 days, that's not what you see a lot in football. Three in seven is already a lot, let alone four in 10. With only 13 outfield players available with Premier League or Champions League experience. After the blow we had conceding the 3-3 in extra time against Leeds, where we deserved so much more. Then to go into this stadium against such a strong Inter Milan team, you couldn't have asked for more if you look at our performance.

“Again, we hardly gave away a chance. The biggest one they had was I think just before half-time, after we had to again - the players, and me included and our fans - accept a referee decision that could have gone another way as well. But that has been the story of our season, as some other things.

*“Great mentality. Second half, we got better and better. We were close to scoring already with Conor Bradley and Hugo Ekitike. And in the end we got a penalty which if that is a penalty, we could have had 10 this season. That was a penalty that I don't think in the Premier League would have been given I think the first goal was more clear a goal than it was wrong that the penalty was given.”*
