Jordan Henderson, Liverpool captainensured that it was “very difficult” to accept the defeat that the English team received this Tuesday against the real Madrid (2-5) in the first leg of the round of 16 Champions.
“It’s very difficult to do it,” Henderson told BT Sport. “For many moments in the first half we did well and we were unlucky to leave with a curve at half-time. Then we made a lot of mistakes. Madrid He punishes us as much as possible.”
“It all depends on their quality, but we didn’t help either. We didn’t defend well (the third goal). Then we could have done better. The fight got out of hand.”added the English midfielder.
Henderson recalled that in the last two games the Liverpool left the gate at zero, so it’s hard to understand what happened to them this Tuesday at Anfield. “It’s hard to come here and talk. They have a lot of quality and when you don’t defend 100%, they punish you. It’s hard to swallow. There will be time. We have to turn the page.”
