Luis Diaz squandered two huge chances during Liverpool’s 1-1 draw against Manchester City on Sunday.
Jurgen Klopp’s men found themselves 1-0 after a clever routine was finished off by John Stones in the 23rd minute.The Colombian squandered two huge chances including a one-on-one against City’s substitute goalkeeper Stefan Ortega after being played through by Mohamed Salah.
After the final whistle, a video showed a dejected Diaz walking around the Anfield turf as he was consoled by his teammates.He said: “We have 10 games to play, so obviously nothing is decided. There are plenty of games. The next one in the league is Brighton at home, traditionally it is not our favourite opponent. It is not that we think, ‘Thank God it’s Brighton.’
“They play really good football and that is a tough game for us. At one point we play Tottenham here, we have to go to Aston Villa and stuff like this. City play Arsenal, play Tottenham and Aston Villa as well.” He added: “So many teams are fighting, so much quality. The only thing I need for the moment, I would prefer to have 30 points between us and all the other things, but the realistic thing is are we really in that race from a performance point of view?Liverpool will take on Sparta Prague in the Europa League on Thursday before playing Manchester United in the FA Cup on Sunday.
