Luis Muriel: “We conceded avoidable goals”

Atalanta-Liverpool post-match interview

A defeat that hurts the one suffered by the Nerazzurri against the Premier League champions Liverpool and it was difficult even to comment on the match for the Colombian striker Luis Muriel: “We conceded avoidable goals”.

“It’s difficult to comment on a match like this. I struggle to comment on this game. We weren’t ourselves, we weren’t up to the level of this situation. We conceded goals that could have been avoided. We must move on, learn and keep working. We shouldn’t lose our cheerfulness, the strength we have, for all we have done throughout these years. We’ll definitely learn from this defeat and we’ll move on”.

A 5-0 defeat is heavy, but you said it yourself, some mistakes could have been avoided. Obviously something happened. Did you feel too much the match? Are Liverpool too strong? Although Atalanta proved to stand up to quality sides. You can’t explain what happened in the heat of the moment.

“It’s difficult. After you lose this way, it’s difficult to explain. You have to move on and think about the next match, luckily there’s another one round the corner. The most important thing to do now is to forget and learn from our mistakes. We must immediately forget this and start working for the upcoming match. Luckily we play every three days, which allows us to immediately bounce back, to work and keep looking forward. That’s what we have to do”.
