Andersen said: “The whole game I sat really close to him, I annoyed him a lot and did well against him. I think that’s why he was angry with me. He head-butted me, the first one, at a cross, and I told him he shouldn’t do that. I was angry with him. Then he did it again which is, for me, is really stupid, so it’s a clear red card.”Liverpool have failed to win their opening two matches of a Premier League campaign for the first time since 2012-13 and already trail Manchester City by four points.
The Netherlands captain said: “I don’t want to blame different things. We want to perform well but it’s funny becauseand everyone was saying loads of other things and now we have drawn twice and people will write us off. But that’s the outside world and we concentrate on what we can influence and that’s our performance.
“It was, especially with 10 men, a great performance. We put them under pressure, made them nervous, let them kick long balls. That’s something we have to learn from, keep going, but we want to win and we’ll look for that in the next game. “We put them under pressure, we took a lot of risk because we had to score the equaliser and were hoping to get the winner. But we should not come with 10 men, it should not happen.”
Luis Díaz scored a superb equaliser for Liverpool four minutes after Nunez’s dismissal and Van Dijk believes the Colombia international has much more to offer this season. “Luis is a fantastic player,” he said. “It’s something we need and he provided that bit of special action and he can be so much better.
